This was AMAZING. My husband and son both said this was a meal to put in “The Favourites “..I added red wine which I think is a must.. Definitely worth the burning of the eyes when cutting the onions.
Valentine’s Day Romantic Dinner with Well Plated French Onion soup coupled with Well Plated Honey Garlic Salmon and wine {also used in the soup). The soup was delicious and if blind-folded, the taster would have thought it was from a high end restaurant. The caramelized onions were amazing and the wine enhanced the flavor. Easy to make, so this will have a return showing.
Just cooked this onion soup and devoured it. Very, very, very nice. Perfect for a cold Winter day. My husband, a professional chef, loved it too and praised the soup.
I used yellow onions and Swiss Gruyère cheese. The beef broth was homemade.
Delicious! I used 2 red, 2 yellow and 2 sweet onions. I did not have any brandy on hand but added a few shakes of Worcestershire. I used red wine because I had a bottle of Pinot noir open. It was so good!
I have been wanting to try this for a long time and finally got around to it yesterday. This is EXCELLENT! I love that you can make a delicious French onion soup without needing extra bowls that are broiler safe. My husband said “this is better than some French onion soup we’ve had hat restaurants!” Thank you so much Erin for creating this delicious, easy to implement recipe.
This was absolutely delicious! The key definitely is making sure the onions properly caramelize for the best deep flavor. I also added a few sprigs of fresh thyme to the onions while they were cooking for a little added flavor and used havarti cheese on my toasts because it melts so nicely. This recipe is a keeper for sure! Thank you for sharing it :)
My husband and I love the restaurant version, and I’ve been searching for a delicious homemade version of French Onion Soup, and this is a WINNER! So good! Very easy and incredibly flavorful 😋
I’ve tried FOS before but this recipe is outstanding! So well-written with great photos. They helped me know how dark to get the onions! And you are right, so worth the wait! We all loved it!
Fabulous recipe! I’m very happy to find a delicious recipe for French Onion Soup! This is our favorite soup when we go out to eat, and I love to find great soup recipes!
Definitely a labor intensive recipe but really delicious! I have been wanting to make homemade french onion soup for a long time now and am glad I finally did. I chopped all the onions the day before to break up some of the steps. I used a pinot grigo wine… and drank the rest of the bottle while I stirred it :)
This was so good!! My family had a soup night and this was the recipe I made and it was the first soup that was completely devoured. It’s such an easy soup to make and the flavor is amazing! I’m glad I made it for the Challenge this month!
Such a delicious and easy soup to prepare just takes time and patience! Next time I think I will try a mix of onions. My husband said I nailed it! Thank you for another great recipe.
This is the BEST French onion soup! It is creamy, sweet, and savory all at the same time. The brandy is a must! It took me about an hour to cook the onions, but it is well worth it to get that sweet, creamy taste. Why pay $10 at a restaurant when you can make a better version yourself at home for a quarter of the price that serves 6? Simply amazing recipe!
Incredible! First time making French Onion Soup and this didn’t disappoint at all! Used red wine as that’s all I had on hand and it turned out delicious!
The process is spot on. Turned out great for my first homemade onion soup. The onions were perfect. It was a little sweeter than I prefer. I think maybe because I used pinot grigio. Next time I may use vermouth.
