If using fresh onions, peel by cutting off the top and adding to the water for about 1 minute. Remove from the water with a slotted spoon and place in ice water.

While onions are simmering, melt butter in a small saucepan. Stir in flour and cook for 1 minute. Add stock and cream a little bit at a time stirring after each addition whisking until smooth. Stir in a pinch of nutmeg.

Remove from heat and stir in 3 tablespoons of parmesan cheese and salt & pepper to taste. Stir in onions.
