Mom's Traditional Creamed Onions Recipe

Peel onions and drop into boiling water. Cook until tender. Drain reserving liquid. Set onions aside while you make the sauce.

Melt butter or margarine in a saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour to make a paste. Mix together cooking water and milk. Add milk mixture slowly to the saucepan stirring constantly and cook until thickened. Add salt and pepper to taste. Add onions and transfer to a serving dish.
