We love this recipe but use a slightly different version from the 1999 TOH. Our version includes 2 cups of sliced celery and 1/4 cup cider vinegar added to the sauce. You HAVE to prepare the onions - they are what truly makes this recipe. Everyone I serve this to wants the recipe. Thanks for posting!
