We French Onion soup often and think 9 times out of 10 times, its fantastic on X; I am also surprised it's a regular recipe. I'll share some tips we use for anyone who's interested, we like flavor so this will be a bolder but its amazing:
- Use a crockpot, put it outside and slow cook the onions 8-10 hours, can even do this overnight
- Add Vidalia onions, ideally two or more types of onions
- Use 100% beef stock, if you don't make it home made, various websites agree that regular supermarket bought beef broth isn't very good as they don't use enough beef, it's better to buy "better than bullion" which is what we use
- Add a tablespoon of Worchester sauce
- For sugar use brown sugar or molasses
- For the bread, use toasted garlic bread (the kitchen will smell amazing)
