     La Baguette French Onion Soup

Category   Salads - Soups - Sidedishes
Sub Category   None
Servings   8

Ingredients
6 Cups or 2 lbs yellow onions sliced thin
5 Tbl unsalted butter
1/2 Cup dry white wine, optional
10 Cups boiling chicken stock
2 tsp pepper
french bread croutons
1/2 lb gruyere or swiss cheese
 

Instructions
Cook onions in butter, covered, over medium-low heat until moisture forms and onions are transparent but not brown, about 20 minutes. Uncover, raise heat to medium and cook 45 minutes or longer, stirring often, until liquid has evaporated and onion's natural sugars caramelize; onions should be dark golden-brown. Add wine and bring to boil. Add chicken stock; simmer 2 hours, covered with lid partially ajar, on low heat.
Refrigerate, uncovered (to prevent stock from souring) overnight. When cold, skim congealed butter off top. I've never done this step, but I've heard it does enhance the flavor
Before serving, add pepper to taste and simmer 1 1/2 hours. Place broiler-proof bowls on baking sheet. Fill each with soup and top with croutons and a handful of cheese. Broil until cheese is melted and browned in spots, about 5 minutes.
Serving Suggestions
Serve with a fresh baked french roll!
