by 247tasty

This spectacular soup is my ultimate comfort food! You will surely love the taste of caramelized onions paired with the rest of the ingredients! This is a must-try recipe that you will surely enjoy preparing!

Ingredients:

1/4 c white wine
6 cubes beef bouillon or 2 tbsp beef stock paste
1 baguette crusty
1 tsp thyme
2 tbsp butter, unsalted
1/4 c cooking sherry
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbsp flour
1 tsp sugar
8 oz Gruyere Cheese or Swiss Cheese
7 c water
3 pounds of yellow onions, sliced into 1/8-inch rings
1/2 tsp salt

Directions:

Place a large stockpot on the stove and turn the heat to medium. Add butter and allow it to melt.

Add the onions, then season with sugar and salt to taste.

Cover the pot, then stir and cook the onions for about 10 minutes.

Uncover, then cook for another 1 hour and 30 minutes or until caramelized. Make sure to stir them so that they don’t burn.

In the meantime, preheat the oven to about 325 degrees F.

Slice the baguette into 3/4-inch cuts, then put them onto a cookie sheet.

Place the cookie sheet in the preheated oven and bake the baguette slices for about 10 minutes. Remove from the oven.

Sprinkle flour, then whisk and cook for about 2 minutes to remove the raw taste.

Put the paste, thyme, and water. Stir to combine and allow it to boil.

Reduce the heat to medium-low, then simmer everything for about 20 minutes.

Put the Worcestershire sauce, sherry, and white wine. Stir until well blended and simmer for 20 more minutes.

Preheat the broiler and fill each heat-safe bowl with the soup, baguette, and cheese.

Broil for about 10 minutes or until the cheese turns golden brown.

Remove from the oven and allow them to cool for at least 5 minutes at room temperature.

Serve and enjoy!
