Raspberries have acquired a sentimental meaning to me, and I have raspberries tattooed on my shoulder as an ode to both my late mother and late grandmother. I also think of them every time I wind up with some in my kitchen. The dramatic red color these raspberry-macerated onions yield is really something. Like, stop-you-dead-in- your-tracks something. Here, I use them with grilled zucchini and Swiss chard, but you can serve them with everything from grilled chicken to charcuterie.

This recipe was excerpted from 'Prairie' by Dan Clapson and Twyla Campbell. Buy the full book on Amazon.
