Ingredients:

  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • 2 tbsp (packed) golden brown sugar
  • 2 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 8 5 1/2x3x1/2-inch slices rustic country bread, such as walnut, pecan, or walnut-raisin
  • 2 6- oz wedges soft blue cheese (such as cambazola, rind trimmed, or gorgonzola dolcelatte), sliced
  • 1/4 cup (1/2 stick) butter, room temperature

Directions:

  1. Heat oil in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add onions; cook until just beginning to color, stirring often, about 20 minutes. Add sugar and cook until onions are deep golden brown and very soft, stirring occasionally, about 25 minutes. Remove from heat. Mix in vinegar and raisins. Season caramelized onions to taste with salt and pepper. Cool. (Can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and refrigerate.)
  2. Arrange 4 bread slices on work surface. Top with cheese, dividing equally. Top each with 1/4 cup caramelized onions. Top with remaining bread slices to form 4 sandwiches. Spread half of butter over tops of sandwiches. Heat heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add sandwiches, buttered side down. Spread remaining butter over tops of bread. Partially cover and cook until bottoms are brown, about 3 minutes. Turn sandwiches over. Cook until second sides brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer to cutting board. Cut each sandwich into 6 wedges.
