Ingredients: 2 large yellow sweet onions, halved and sliced |
|
Step 1: Peel and half the onions, then slice. |
|
|
Step 2: Melt a tablespoon of butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then add all of the onions, alternating with the remaining butter and a pinch of salt so the onions release their moisture. |
|
|
Step 3: Cover and cook the onions until they are well caramelized and reduced considerably. This will take about an hour. Stir occasionally. |
|
|
Step 4: Once onions have reduced, stir in white wine and cognac and raise heat enough to bring to a boil. Add the bay leaf and thyme and reduce to a simmer. |
|
Step 5: Meanwhile, cut circles out of the bread, tracing around an ovenproof bowl or dish that you will bake the soup in. |
|
|
Step 6: Place the bread circles on a baking sheet and toast them directly under the oven broiler. |
|
|
Step 7: Grate the cheese! |
|
|
Step 8: Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs and divide the onion soup into bowls, top with a bread circle and a portion of the cheese. Put the bowls on the baking sheet and set under the broiler just until the cheese has melted. Serve immediately. |
