Step 1:
Start with the red onion jam. This is a great little condiment that can go alongside cheese and crackers, on burgers, sandwiches, salads, etc., plus you can make it ahead of time and it will keep well. Finely chop your onions. |

Step 3:
Add (sorry, I didn't measure) maybe a TB or two of red wine vinegar, two bay leaves, a pinch of dried thyme, a few coarse grinds of black pepper, a few teaspoons of sugar, and maybe 1/3 cup of red wine. Let it cook until most of the moisture has evaporated. Taste from time to time, and adjust seasonings as needed. When done, the onions will be a rich burgundy color and mostly soft, but still retain a slight crunch. Set aside. |

Step 4:
Make your goat cheese cream by stirring up your goat cheese in a bowl with a small fork, then add, a little at a time, enough half and half to give it the consistency of sour cream. Set aside. Here's a picture of the cream (left) and regular goat cheese (right). |
