   Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   1         tablespoon  unsalted butter -- cold, (14g)
   1                     onion -- peeled and sliced thinly, (113g)
   1         tablespoon  brown sugar -- (25g)
   1                cup  Unbleached All-Purpose Flour -- (120g)
   2          teaspoons  baking powder
      3/4      teaspoon  salt
   8        tablespoons  unsalted butter -- cold, (113g)
   2               Tbsp  fresh chives -- chopped, (to 3 tablespoons (11g))
   1                cup  sourdough starter -- unfed/discard, (227g)

These biscuits are perfectly balanced, taste-wise: the tanginess of 
sourdough complements the sweetness of caramelized onions. End 
result: total deliciousness!

PREP: 45 mins
BAKE: 18 to 20 mins
TOTAL: 4:33
YIELD: eight 2 1/2" biscuits

Combine the butter, onion, and sugar in a pan set over medium-low 
heat. Cook the onions, covered, for about 30 minutes, stirring every 
5 minutes; they should be nicely caramelized. Transfer the onions to 
a bowl, cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until well 
chilled, at least 3 hours.

Preheat the oven to 425F. Grease or line a baking sheet with parchment.

Combine the flour, baking powder, and salt. Work the butter into the 
flour until the mixture is unevenly crumbly.

Toss in the chives and caramelized onions.

Add the starter, mixing until the dough is cohesive. Turn the dough 
out onto a lightly floured surface and use a bench knife or bowl 
scraper to fold it over on itself five or six times, until it comes together.

Pat the dough into a 1"-thick disk.

Use a sharp 2 1/2" biscuit cutter to cut rounds. Pat the scraps 
together, and cut additional biscuits.

Bake the biscuits for 15 to 18 minutes, until they're just turning golden.

Remove the biscuits from the oven, and serve warm with a little bit of butter.

Tips: Don't have any starter? Here's a recipe for homemade sourdough 
starter. If you're making it from scratch, you'll need to feed it for 
5 to 7 days before it's ready for baking. Want a head start? Purchase 
our classic fresh sourdough starter - it'll be ready for baking soon 
after it arrives at your door. Looking for tips, techniques, and all 
kinds of great information about sourdough baking? Find what you need 
in our sourdough baking guide.

Brush the biscuits with butter before baking, if desired, for extra 
color and flavor. Brush them with butter again once they come out of 
the oven, for over-the-top richness.
