Step 1
Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium. Add sliced onions and a pinch of salt, stir to coat.

Pour in wine, scrape up browned bits from the pot bottom, and simmer until liquid reduces by half, about 2 minutes.

Toast bread slices in a separate skillet or toaster until golden and crisp on both sides.
