French Onion Soup
A timeless bistro classic.
Makes six 1-cup servings
3 pounds yellow onions, peeled
½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1 teaspoon kosher salt, divided
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, divided
2 tablespoons unbleached, all-purpose flour
4 ounces dry sherry or brandy, divided
2 stems fresh thyme
2 bay leaves
6 cups beef or veal stock or broth
1 small baguette, cut into ½-inch slices
8 ounces Gruyère
1. Adjust the runway of the Cuisinart ® Mandoline to the lower
position. Fit with the straight edge blade set to the ³∕
16
inch
position and slice the onions.
2. Melt the butter in a stockpot over medium heat. Once butter has
melted, add the onions, ½ teaspoon of the salt and ¼ teaspoon
of the pepper. Cook over medium-low to medium heat until
caramelized, about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
3. Once onions have cooked, stir in the flour and cook for about 1
to 2 minutes. Stir in 2 ounces of the sherry or brandy with the
thyme and bay leaves and cook for a few minutes to reduce the
wine slightly. Add the stock and increase the temperature to
medium-high and bring the mixture just to a boil.
4. Reduce the heat to maintain a simmer for about 50 minutes. Stir
in remaining sherry, salt and pepper. Taste and adjust
seasonings if necessary.
5. While soup is cooking, replace the straight edge blade with the
shredding blade and shred the Gruyère; reserve. Lightly toast the
baguette slices under a broiler, and reserve.
6. Once soup has finished simmering ladle it into individual
ovenproof crocks. Top the soup with bread slices, then shredded
Gruyère. Broil until the cheese is completely melted and
browned. Serve immediately.
