Not much out there that makes me happier than a delicious warm pot of soup, and more specifically French Onion Soup. If you make it you appreciate the robust flavors even more knowing you spent at least 15 minutes crying over peeling and slicing onions and then again when caramelizing them over an hour while constantly stirring. Onions in there raw form are great on a burger, in ceviche or possibly with tartar, but onions that are caramelized belong on just about anything, including a soup. • SUBSCRIBE for more great recipes: http://bit.ly/2zql9ha • • MORE GREAT RECIPES • Chicken and Dumpling Soup: http://bit.ly/2tavS9V • Clam Chowder: http://bit.ly/2HTrGR5 • Homemade Artisan Bread Loaf: http://bit.ly/2JJHfkl • Farro Salad with Lemon Vinaigrette: https://bit.ly/2l9KnXF • Mediterranean Quinoa Bowl with Falafel: https://bit.ly/2MlxBC1 • Jackfruit Tacos: http://bit.ly/2lcFg9k • Vegetable Quesadillas: http://bit.ly/2HNPcz1 • Kale Salad with Fried Goat Cheese: http://bit.ly/2sW0Ymc • Classic Ratatouille: http://bit.ly/2l7Bj5A • Classic French Onion Soup Recipe with Crostini and Gruyere Cheese • Prep Time 30 minutes • Cook Time 2 hours • Total Time 2 hours 30 minutes • Servings 20 • Author Chef Billy Parisi • Ingredients: • For the Soup: • 3 ounces of unsalted butter • 4 each peeled and thickly sliced yellow and white onions • 1 ½ tablespoons of sugar • 6 finely minced cloves of garlic • 2 cups of red wine I used cabernet sauvignon • 96 ounces of beef stock • 2 tablespoons of chopped fresh thyme • 2 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar • Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste • For the Crostini:: • 1 French baguette cut into ½” thick slices • 1 stick of melted unsalted butter • Kosher salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste • For the Toppings: • 1 pound of shredded gruyere cheese • fresh thyme sprigs for garnish • Instructions: • 1.
