Carmelizing means taking them to California and letting them hang out in a pretty little town just south of SF. What you described is caramelizing.

I could use the excuse that the magnetic pull Carmel exerts on us Californians has an effect on the spelling cells in our brains.

But I never much cared for Carmel, so that won't work.
The truth is, I say "carmelize" when I slowly brown onions. "Caramels" are candy to my ears.

What you say is fine, but what you spell is different
