I work in the prepared foods and R&D department for a small local deli/grocer. Was asked to make a recipe for French onion dip for consumer testing. I've always wanted a good reason to post in this sub and now I finally can! Hopefully my onions are up to snuff!

Well yeah, onions are like 90% water.
2 things.
You spelt caramelized wrong.
You didn’t caramelize the onions.
A local deli has an R&D department??????
Next time double the onions, and give them an extra 2, 3 hours probably. Caramelized = dark brown, almost black and very sticky/jammy. Those onions probably don’t taste bad, but they’d for sure be lacking in flavor.
Bruh, you got so much because you only half cooked them. Finish caramelizing and you should yield the proper volume which I s about half what you have now.
