I used to make this once per week and eat a piece every morning with milk or cream poured over. I added raisins to the recipe and I suppose fruit could be added with some experimentation.

I had to compromise a bit. I had one medium white onion and a small can of chicken broth. I asked google about the broth and it said they used it in Paris so I forged ahead. I sliced the onion and sauted in butter until caramelized then added broth and seasoning. Also no dry sherry so a little cabernet sauvignon. It's now simmering but a taste test proved right tasty.

Have to let us know how it tastes...


Now... Does anyone have a good recipe for Apple Cider? Had some this past weekend at a store, and was delicious... Gotta make some of that...

Thanks to your precious lady for the onion soup recipe. I was looking for canned onion soup in the market and am I ever so glad that I didn't find any. The recipe is easily adaptable and quite delicious.
