Caramelized Onion and Sour Cherry Tartine

Did you think cherries were only for sweet treats? Cherries take the savory route in this tasty tartine. The tartness of the cherries helps to cut through the richness of the sweet and tender caramelized onions and sharp cheese. Fresh thyme leaves jump in right before serving to add a hint of freshness to the dish. This recipe also makes for a melty grilled cheese—just sandwich two tartines together. Add arugula and/or ham to really hit it out of the ballpark. Use this back-pocket timesaving tip no matter if you’re team tartine or grilled cheese: adding sugar to the onions expedites the caramelization process.
