Browning small amounts of onion means drying out and scorching, unless they are swimming in oil. Here’s another way: keep the onions fresh by spraying them lightly with a plant mister when they start to look dry. The water helps the onions caramelize evenly and helps deglaze any flavorful browned bits (fond) at the bottom of the pan.
The sugar content of Walla Wallas and other sweet onions makes them spoil more quickly if they are stored touching each other. Keep them in saved mesh bags from other vegetables, or knot them individually in an old pantyhose leg.
