A rich, homemade, and EFFORTLESS French Onion Soup!
Servings: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1/4 cup butter
- 3 pounds Vidalia onions about 4 medium, quarted
- 1 teaspoon REAL Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 2 bay leaves
- 2 TBS unbleached white flour
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 4 cups homemade beef broth or good quality store-bought beef broth
For the bread
- 1/2 loaf French bread
- garlic clove
- 1 cup or more shredded Gruyere Cheese
Instructions
- Add butter and quartered onions to the Bellini and chop on speed 1 for 15 seconds. Make sure the lid is secured on your machine or it won't turn on.
- Turn the heat on to 100 C and cook for one hour on speed 1. Remove the measuring cap from the lid.
- Next add the wine, beef broth, spices, and flour, and cook 45 more minutes at 100 C on speed 1.
- While it's cooking, slice up a nice French bread, two pieces per bowl. Place in 400 degree oven and cook for 1 minute per side, until the bread is dry but not brown. Rub a garlic clove over one side of the bread and set aside.
- Once the Bellini has finished cooking, ladle soup into oven-safe bowls and place on a rimmed baking sheet.
- Top the soup with bread and shredded Gruyere cheese.
- Transfer baking sheet to oven and broil until cheese is melted and bubbling, 4 to 8 minutes.
- If you don't have oven safe bowls, you can put the bread on parchment paper lined baking sheet and bake in the oven, then top the soup with the bread.
- Enjoy!
