Start by cleaning the pearl onions by cutting off the very ends and removing the skins. This can take some time, but be patient. Put the cleaned pearl onions into a baking dish and drizzle with a little olive oil and a sprinkling of salt and black pepper. Bake the onions until they're' tender and beginning to brown. Pour some heavy cream over the top (as much as you want!) and continue to bake until the cream bubbles and gets thick. Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and the onions are ready to be enjoyed.
Variation: Fresh herbs, like rosemary, thyme or parsley, would be welcome to the pearl onion party.
