Onion Marmalade

Heat pan over medium heat. Add olive oil and onions. When onions begin to turn light golden and are translucent, add honey, salt and thyme. Cook over low heat until all liquid has evaporated and onions are meltingly soft and golden. Season with pepper. This can take up to two hours. Cool before using.

Pate Brisee

By hand, or in a mixing bowl, cut butter into flour and salt until mixture resembles coarse cornmeal. Add just enough water so that mixture just comes together and is not too wet. Form into a ball and let rest 20 minutes in refrigerator.
