GLAZED BAKED ONIONS
8 servings
                                                                                 
1 cup homemade or canned vegetable stock
1/4 cup honey or maple syrup
1 tablespoon margarine
Pinch dried rosemary
Pinch thyme
Pinch ground nutmeg
4 large Vidalia or pure white onions
Wheat germ for topping

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees.

Combine all the ingredients except the last 2 in a small sauce pan.
Heat gently, stirring, until the margarine and honey are smoothly
blended. Remove from the heat.

Peel the outer skin from the onions and cut them in half crosswise.
Cut a thin sliver from the bottom of each onion half, so that they
will stand steadily in a baking dish. Arrange the onions halves in
a shallow baking dish and pour the mixture from the saucepan evenly
over them.

Cover and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the onions are
tender when pierced with a fork. Once or twice during this time,
spoon some of the liquid from the bottom of the baking dish over
the onions.

Sprinkle the onions with wheat germ and bake, uncovered, for an
additional 10 to 15 minutes, or until most of the liquid has been
absorbed. Serve at once or keep warm until needed.
