• Add the 4 Tbsp of butter to a 3-quart, fireproof casserole and place in the oven.

SOUBISE SAUCE

Steps:

• Cook the onion: In a medium saute pan, combine the butter and onions with 2 tablespoons water and a generous pinch of salt over medium-low heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tender, 8 to 10 minutes. (There should be little liquid in the pan and the onion should not be browned.)
• Make the cream base: In a saucepan, add the cream and warm over medium heat. Allow the cream to come to a boil and reduce slightly, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the Gruyere and Parmesan and let melt a little. Add the Worcestershire, nutmeg, lemon zest and salt and pepper to taste. Whisk the ingredients together in the pan and let it cook until the cream thickens, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Pour the cream base over the onions and bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat, then stir and let the mixture rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Taste for seasoning.

SOUBISE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Melt the butter in a large Dutch oven set over medium heat and, when it foams, add the onions, thyme, salt and pepper. Cook slowly for 15 to 20 minutes, stirring often and turning the heat down if it threatens to scorch the butter, until the onions are soft and translucent.
• As the onions cook, bring a small pot of water to a boil and add the rice to the pot. Cook the rice for 5 or 6 minutes, then drain it. Add the rice to the onions and stir to combine.
• Cover the Dutch oven tightly and place it in the oven. Allow to cook, undisturbed, for 35 minutes. Remove from oven and allow to sit for 30 more.
• Before serving, remove the top of the Dutch oven, stir the rice, and place over a medium-low flame to reheat. Stir in the cheese and the cream and cook, stirring occasionally, until the dish is hot. Add the parsley to serve.

SAUCE SOUBISE (ONION SAUCE)

Steps:

• Cook the onions in 2 T of butter until they are very soft (about 12 minutes). They should not brown. (In France they puree the onions for a more refined sauce.) At this point it's your choice.
• In a saucepan, melt the other 2 T of butter & incorporate the flour, stirring over low heat for 2 minutes.
• Gradually whisk in the milk, blending well after each addition. Cook the sauce over low to medium heat until it thickens & comes just to a boil. Remove from heat & stir in the cooked onions & heavy cream.
