Tasty French Onion Soup
When my husband asked me to make this soup for a dinner at church, I prepared a huge pot and counted on having some left for us. But he came home with an empty pan and many requests for the recipe!—Lise Thomson, Magrath, Alberta

I made it as written, and after tasting couldn't resist adding a little wine and browning sauce. Delicious.
The flavor of this was very good. I did NOT top the bowls of soup with the bread and cheese and broil. We do not like soggy bread. I toasted the bread and served it on the side with a salad. I did top the soup with a bit of Parmesan cheese. I will make again. And I agree with others about the oil being way to much. A tiny bit of oil of your choice is more then enough. Add a no more then a Tbsp. of real butter for flavor if you chose. Cook the onions nice and slow. I like the idea of adding a bit of garlic in it. Will try that next time.
Easy and delicious! 1/3 cup of oil is way too much, as other reviewers have said. I used a couple turns of the pan of grapeseed oil, allergic to olives, and a small pat of butter for flavor. I also cut back sodium content with homemade stock. Otherwise, fantastic!*** Note ~ Make sure you follow the directions from the manufacturer for using your crocks/ramekins in broiler. Do NOT use a normal cereal bowl. Most crocks/ramekins say to make sure bowl is already warmed up before broiling. If you just use any bowl and preheat you risk bowls breaking, burning yourself when they do if they don't break in oven, and loss of this labour of love!
Tastes delicious!
Very flavorful easy to make soup. I didn't use oil though. I substituted 3 T of butter instead. I added a splash of red wine and sautéed the onions with a T spoon of minced garlic. What a brilliant, rich flavor. I added it to my favorites. Thanks for sharing your recipe.
My go to french onion soup. Like other readers I don't use the full amount of oil. My husband works outside all the time so in the winter it gets requested a lot.
I love this soup. I've never made french onion soup before, but always order it when I'm out at a restaurant. I was surprised how simple the process was and that I was able to replicate this tasty soup in my home.
