RESTAURANT-STYLE FRENCH ONION SOUP



Restaurant-Style French Onion Soup image

Classic French onion soup, similar to one you can get in a restaurant. Made with wine and sherry to bring out the beef flavor of the broth. Two different cheeses top it off to give it that bubbly, browned, and stretchy topping.

Time 1h35m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup butter
8 onions, sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
½ teaspoon salt, or to taste
½ teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 cup red wine
1 tablespoon sherry
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 quarts beef broth
1 French baguette, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
olive oil, or as needed
6 slices Swiss cheese
6 slices provolone cheese

Steps:

  • Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onions, garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme until onions are soft and brown, about 30 minutes. Pour in red wine and sherry; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until you can no longer smell alcohol cooking off, about 15 more minutes.
  • Sprinkle onion mixture with flour and stir until coated; cook for 10 minutes. Pour in broth, stir to blend in flour, and simmer until slightly thickened, about 20 minutes.
  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) while soup is simmering. Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
  • Toast the baguette slices in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes, turning the bread over halfway through cooking. Remove toast and set aside.
  • Set an oven rack about 8 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler.
  • Ladle soup into 6 oven-proof crocks, filling them about 3/4 full. Place 1 or 2 bread slices into the bowls and top each with a slice of Swiss cheese and a slice of provolone. Carefully place filled crocks onto a sturdy baking sheet.
  • Broil soup until the cheese is browned and bubbling, 3 to 4 minutes.

  • In a large pot, add the butter and oil and melt over medium heat. After the butter stops bubbling, add the onions and stir to coat them. Cover the pot with a lid and cook for 15 minutes on med-low.
  • Remove lid and add salt, pepper, and sugar to get the caramelization going. Continue to cook on medium-low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring often, until the onions are nice and brown. Keep an eye on the heat level because you don't want them to stick and burn at the bottom.
  • Add flour to onions and stir for about 60 seconds, then add the broth, wine, and herbs and cook partially covered on low heat for about 40-45 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste if needed.
  • While the soup is cooking, slice the bread into slices or large cubes and brown under the broiler for a few minutes to get them brown and crunchy. This only takes about 2-3 minutes per side.
