How to: caramelizing vs. sweating

Happy Friday foodie friends!  I don’t know about you but I am beyond ready for the weekend.  Looking forward to whipping up a potato dish tonight that I will be featuring over at Examier.com (don’t worry, I will share with you too), a good friends wedding, and hopefully some time to catch up on my new editions of Food & Wine and Food Network magazines.

Chow.com is a fantastic foodie website that features recipes, how to’s, and message boards for fellow foodies to share and discuss a variety of topics.  I highly recommend signing up for some of their e-newsletters as they are chock-full of helpful tips like the one i’m sharing with you today.

If you’ve been reading FFF for a bit you know how much I love caramelizing onions (see here, here, and here). Chef Michael Symon has a quick video tutorial that shows the difference between sweating and caramelizing onions, both are classic techniques that you should add to your repertoire.  Take a peek and try to incorporate your new lesson into a dish this weekend.
