Toasted Onion Dipping Sauce

This delicious sauce is kind of the sweet spot for me.  Sometimes I love savory foods that are subtly flavored. I don’t know why, but sometimes I just feel like less is more when it comes to flavor.  This is one of those sauces. It’s absolutely delicious and full of flavor, but the flavor isn’t overwhelming. It makes it the perfect sauce to pair with things where you really want the flavor of the main ingredient to be the star.  I love serving this with my vegan gluten free lentil balls.
