Well, I followed this method and the onions took 3 hours to get to deep brown. This leads me to “Hofstader’s Law of Caramelized Onions:” Onions always take 3 times as long to caramelize as you think they’re going to take, even when you take Hostader’s Law into account.

Interesting! I was inspired to make some yesterday to check my own timings and it was roughly right. Maybe you have bigger onions than I do.

Related, it turns out that caramelised onion, mushroom & goats cheese is a pretty good pizza topping.
