Step 2

Peel cipollini onions, and slice thinly. In a large stainless steel pot sweat cipollini onions in half of the butter until they are clear and become soft and sticky.

Step 3

In separate pot melt butter until it starts to bubble, add flour while stirring constantly, continue to stir pour in the 2% milk bring to a boil while stirring.
