While you technically can caramelize onions in a nonstick skillet, part of what makes these onions so special is the fond that builds up on the bottom of the pan — scraping this up and stirring it into the onions gives them an even richer flavor — and this fond won't form in a nonstick skillet. Stir in vinegar and brown sugar. This was the first time I've ever made caramelized onions, and oh my gosh! Using this recipe, I made a delicious batch for my friend's birthday. The only glitch I had was seeing the pot's lid on the video and not sure if I should cover the onions or not.
