Onions are a bit of a problem for me. They are oneof my reflex buys.

By which I mean, every time I go to the grocer nomatter what I am shopping for I always buy a bag ofonions. Surely, I can’t be the only person who doesthis. I also tend to do it with garlic. They’re both kitch-en staples that I use all the time in so many ways. So Imust always be about to run out, right?

It’s a good theory. But if that was the case, I

wouldn’t currently have 15 pounds of onions on thecounter and 20 heads of garlic in my garlic drawer.Yes, I have a special drawer set aside for it.

All of which is to say, I sometimes need to come upwith recipes that use lots of both. So I decided to comeup with a grill-friendly way of using a whole mess ofcaramelized onions. My solution? A grilled white pizzatopped with onions and garlic spiked with carawayseeds and golden raisins. I top it with roasted red pep-pers, pine nuts and crumbled feta for a kind of MiddleEastern take on grilled pizza.
