Well, this is late but you can use it for your next harvest. Slice the onions and put them into a crock pot on low. After about 24 hours, they will be caramalized. Then you can put them into cans and can them in a pressure canner. You can add garlic, spices, apples or whatever you want before they are canned. Voila, instant caramalized onions for steaks, burgers etc. Hope it helps.

@puppyfest thanks, I live near an onion farm.... i will always have onions... so its never late...maybe early...

Have you ever tried canning them?

[see3ga]

@Carrie3570 no but now you have me curious... do tell! btw i am in GA

I always store mine in an old pair of nylons and hang them up--I did just watch a video where the guy unwound one of those bath scrubbies...it seems they are just a long nylon tube and perfect for onions.

@michiganmadmax yeah I could do that with some... but i have about 100lbs... I mught have to dehydrate and freeze them...thanks

I would p[eel, slice and blanch them..and then dehydrate them and store in jars..or even grind some of the dried for onion powder..if you don't have a dehydrator..you can do it on cookie sheets covered in parchment in your oven at 150-175 degrees...just be sure to blanch them or the take to long to dry!

Hope this helps!

I would hang them in pantyhose in a dark cool room. Tie a knot in between each onion.  Then start dehydrating them so you have them in the pantry. Just do a few trays at a time.

Hi see3ga if you have any left now, you could make some french onion soup to can.

Good lunch for the winter with cheese on toast stuck in the top,Yum.
