French Onion
Soup
Here is one recipe that I
would like to add. My daughter has developed this recipe much to the
delight of everyone in the family. When she makes it, It serves as the
entire meal. Here goes.
| 1/4 cup
butter |
6 large
onions sliced thin (about 3 lbs.) |
6
garlic cloves sliced thin |
| 1/2 cup
dry white wine ( you can add more or delete if you wish) |
3 cups
chicken broth |
3 cups
beef broth |
| 1 tsp
Stone-ground Dijon mustard |
1 tsp
Gravy master or other deep brown coloring sauce |
1 tsp beef
soup base concentrate |
1 loaf
French Bread cubed
(Albertson's brand is great and Hot at 4:00) |
1 cup
grated Gruyere Cheese |
|
Melt butter in Large saucepan. Add Onions and Garlic and sauté for about
45 minutes until very tender. Add wine and simmer until reduced to glaze,
about 3 minutes. Stir in chicken broth, beef broth, mustard, gravy master
and soup base, simmer 20 minutes. season to taste with salt and pepper.
You can prepare the soup a day ahead and just bring back up to a simmer at
serving time.
Preheat broiler
Ladle soup into heatproof bowls, top each bowl with fresh bread cubes to
completely cover top and add the grated cheese. Put under broiler until
cheese melts and bubbles.
Enjoy.
