Another recipe post, in light of Thanksgiving…. 🙂

I love this recipe. Forget the turkey, just give me a bowl of this (and some sweet potatoes and apple pie). 🙂
For the onions:
- Whole wheat flour works great.
- I haven’t tried it, but one could probably use potato flour or some other gluten-free substitute. (I used to make fried pumpkin blossoms with potato flour, and they were fantastic!)
- I use regular (whole wheat) bread crumbs; yeah, not as crunchy as Panko but still good. Gluten-free crackers or bread would probably be great.
- I just use regular olive oil on the sheet pan for the onions.
- If you use regular salt (rather than Kosher), use far less. Try sprinkling it on the onions like you would salt your meal.
You can substitute canned beans for the fresh cooked.
If you make the sauce with salted butter, just taste and only add salt if needed at the end.
You could also use cornstarch or other gluten-free substitute instead of flour to thicken this. Use the correct methods to achieve nice results: http://www.wikihow.com/Thicken-Sauce
To make this dairy-free, try just doubling the broth and adding no dairy. Or, add a dairy substitute that can be used in “white sauces.”
