This is unlike any onion dip I’ve ever had, probably because it actually features the fine, fine flavors of real onion. A LOT of onion. This recipe yields about three cups, but it starts with four full cups of raw onion. Then, aided by the deep and sultry additions of balsamic vinegar and brown sugar, those crisp raw onions transform until their decadent, caramelized selves. And instead of sour cream, the bulk of this dip is made of Greek yogurt. Health food? Maybe before the potato chip part...

Dice onions and prepare other ingredients. Place a large, heavy pot over medium heat and add olive oil. Heat until oil glistens. Add onions and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are soft and are becoming translucent. Add brown sugar, sea salt, black pepper, and balsamic vinegar and mix well. Reduce heat to medium-low and cook onions for 30 more minutes, uncovered, stirring frequently. Remove pot from the heat and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes to allow onions to cool a bit.
Remove pot from the heat and allow to cool for 5-10 minutes to allow onions to cool a bit.
While onions are cooling, combine Greek yogurt, mayonnaise, garlic, and Worcestershire sauce in a medium-sized bowl and mix well. Add onions and stir until all are coated with the yogurt mixture.
Dip can be served immediately, with tasty potato chips, but is even more dreamy after chilling for a couple of hours.
