+  Stirring a packet of onion soup mix into sour cream has long been the go-to method for this popular party dip; we were
+  determined to do better. By dicing onions instead of slicing them (more surface area) and starting them over medium
+  heat, we create deep color and caramelized flavor in only 30 minutes. A base of sour cream and mayonnaise provides
+  balanced flavor and creaminess, and a pinch of cayenne adds heat, while balsamic vinegar lends sweetness and mellow
+  tang.
+steps:
+  - ingredients:
+      - { amount: 3, unit: tbsp, item: "butter, unsalted" }
+      - { amount: 2, unit: lbs, item: "onions, yellow (diced)" }
+      - { amount: 0.5, unit: tsp, item: "salt" }
+      - { amount: 0.5, unit: tsp, item: "black pepper" }
+      - { amount: 0.125, unit: tsp, item: "cayenne pepper" }
+    directions: >
+      Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, salt, pepper, and cayenne. Cook, stirring
+      occasionally, until the onions are translucent (about 10 minutes). Reduce the heat to medium-low, and continue to
+      cook until the onions are golden (about 10 minutes).
+  - ingredients:
+      - { amount: 0.25, unit: cup, item: "water" }
+    directions: >
+      Add 2 tbsp of water to the skillet, and cook, scraping up any browned bits, until the water has evaporated (about
+      5 minutes).  Add the remaining water and cook until the onions are caramelized and the water has again evaporated
+      (about 5 more minutes).
+  - ingredients:
+      - { amount: 2.5, unit: tsp, item: "balsamic vinegar" }
+      - { amount: 1, unit: cup, item: "sour cream" }
+      - { amount: 0.5, unit: cup, item: "mayonnaise" }
+    directions: >
+      Remove from the heat and transfer to a medium mixing bowl. Add the vinegar, and allow to cool (about 10 minutes).
+  - ingredients:
+      - { amount: 1, unit: cup, item: "sour cream" }
+      - { amount: 0.5, unit: cup, item: "mayonnaise" }
+    directions: >
+      Add the sour cream and mayonnaise, and stir to combine completely.  Season with salt & pepper to taste.
+      Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes before serving.
