Chef’s Insight

When caramelizing onions, avoid stirring them too frequently to prevent them from becoming soft rather than caramelized. - Use freshly ground black pepper for a more aromatic flavor.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, replace the Gruyere cheese with a dairy-free cheese substitute. - Feel free to customize the herbs used in this recipe based on personal preference or availability.
