1) Classic French Onion Soup Recipe



" Caramelized  onions are cooked in beef broth then topped with lots of cheese and crusty french bread. Let's look into the Recipe."


Ingredients

  • 2 extra large onions (8 cups sliced onions, sliced thinly int crescent shapes.
  • 1 and 1/2 tbsp unsalted butter, (21 grams)
  • 1 tbsp oil (14 grams)
  • 1/2 tsp salt (2.8 grams)
  • 1/8 tsp sugar (<1 gram)
  • 1 and 1/2 tbsp all purpose-flour (~10 grams)
  • 4 cups low-sodium beef broth (907 grams)
  • ground pepper and salt to taste.
  • crusty French Bread, sliced.
  • 4 oz Gruyere cheese for the top, or Gruyere-cheddar mix.
Instructions
  1. Melt butter  with oil over low heta in a oven or a large pot. Add the onion slices into the pot and cover for 15 minutes.
  2. Slice your bread into 1/2 inch slices and toast them. Temporarily set aside.
  3. Raise the stove heat slightly and stir in 1/2 tsp of salt and 1/8 tsp of sugar. Cook, uncovered, for another 40 to 45 minutes until onions have caramalized, stirring occasionally throughout the duration. (NOTE: Do not rush this step as it is essential for developing the onion flavor.)
  4. Sprinkle (1 and 1/2 tbsp) flour into the pot stir and cook for another 3 minutes. Slowly stream the broth into the pot, stirring as you pour. Season with pinch of salt and pepper, to your taste. Just don't make the soup too salty if you are using a salty cheese like Gruyere. Cook for another 20 minutes until simmering and hot. Preheat your oven to 350 degree F. 
  5. Once the soup is ready, divide the soup among 4 oven-safe bowls. Place 4 or 5 baguette slices into each bowl. Then top each bowl with grated cheese ( abut 1/4 cup of grated cheese per bowl). Bake until cheese completely melts.
