"The Onion Thing"

Did you hear about the Frenchman who jumped into a river in Paris?
He was declared in Seine.

Oh "The Onion Thing", or at least, that is what my husband calls it.  This is a dish I made for him one night when we first started dating (apparently it worked, he likes onions).  The dish is made up of a toasted french baguette, plain goat cheese and onions cooked down for at least an hour with red wine, balsamic, and Worcestershire until they are almost black and thick like jam.  "The Onion Thing" is all about layering; layering small amount of red wine, balsamic, and Worcestershire over time gives the onions a really great flavor.  This works great as a dinner or lunch, but could also be scaled down for appetizers.

Here's what you need:
1 red onion
1-2 tablespoons of butter
5.5 oz log of plain goat cheese
1 loaf, french baguette
red wine
balsamic vinegar
Worcestershire
salt and pepper to taste
