How to make your own bouquet garni:
In order to make an onion soup the way its done in France, you have to
keep things simple. No sugar, no flour, vinegars or wines,
just good quality butter, onions and beef or veal stock. to top it up
of course you will have to use a French style baguette and some gruyere or comte cheese (I use comte cheese in this video). if you are vegetarian yes you can use vegetable stock instead but the taste will not be the same.
FRENCH ONION SOUP // Easiest Soup You’ll ever make ❤️
My beautiful FRENCH ONION SOUP is a French classic that is sure to impress. The meltingly tender onions, the delicious ooey-gooey cheese and the crusty bread is so hard to resist. Deep golden caramelized onions create a soup that is filled with amazing flavor, I’ve simmered it with fresh herbs, optional white wine and I used freshly grated Gruyère cheese, but you can substitute it with other favorites like Swiss cheese, Sharp cheddar, Fontina, Monterrey jack and others you may like. I love crusty bread, and a crusty baguette will always do the trick, but you can choose your favorite too. This soup can be intimidating for many, but I’ll show you how easy it is, and I’ll do it step by step. This FRENCH ONION SOUP wins hands down, I hope you give it a try.❤️

Best Onion Soup Recipe
The key to making the best onion soup recipe is caramelizing the onions, which takes a little bit of time, but it’s easy to do and well worth the effort. I like to use yellow or sweet onions for making soup, since they are best for caramelizing.
