Onion Soup

 I just created a delicious Onion Soup Recipe.

It's quite time consuming to prepare but the end result is really good.

You can turn it into A French Onion Soup by serving it in individual soup bowls topped with Croutons and Gruyere Cheese  microwaved to heat it and melt the Cheese. 

I prepared the Onions inn a Soup Pot but the next time I make it I'll probably use my Large All Clad Skillet so the Onions have more surface space to cook and Caramelize. It take patience and time to Caramelize them. It take a lot of sliced Onions. I highly recommend using a  Mandoline to slice them. 

Here's what you'll need:

A Large Soup Pot.

2 TBS Butter

4 Medium Onions, sliced into thin rounds on a Mandoline.

Salt

2 TBS Flour

1/2 C Dry White Wine

1 Quart  of Vegetable Broth (I us Vegetarian Chicken or Vegetarian Beef Broth)

Black Pepper

1/4 tsp Dried Thyme

 In a Soup Pot on Medium High Heat:

Melt Butter.

Add:

Onions

Salt

Cook until Caramelized, stirring often. This is a slow process that takes at least 20 - 30 minutes.

If the Pan becomes too dry, add 2 TBS Water.

Add:

Flour

Mix with a Wooden Spoon and Cook 1 minute, until it starts to Brown.

Add:

Wine and Cook 2 minutes until most of it evaporates.

Add:

Broth

Pepper

Thyme

Bring to a Boil on High Heat.

Reduce to Low Heat and Simmer Uncovered, stirring often, about 20 minutes, until it Thickens.

See Note at the beginning for Serving Suggestion.

Enjoy!

Peace in the Kitchen!
