YIELD: 12 servings

12 each large onions (3 to 31/2 in. wide)
12 Tbsps. butter or margarine
4 Tbsps. dried thyme or oregano
2 Tbsps. dried rosemary
as needed salt and pepper
as needed minced parsley or paprika (optional)

  1. Cut about 1/2-in. off top of onions and peel. Cut each onion into 12 to 16 vertical wedges, leaving root base intact. Set each bloomed onion on a separate piece of foil.

  2. Top each onion bloom with 1 Tbsp. butter, 1 tsp. thyme or oregano, 1/2 tsp. rosemary, and salt and pepper to taste. Wrap foil pieces around seasoned onions and pinch edges together tightly.

  3. Place wrapped onions upright on pan. Bake at 425°F for 30 minutes, or until tender and cooked, but "petals" still have body and stand upright. If desired, sprinkle with minced parsley or paprika.
