Barr's French Onion Soup
Recipe By :
Serving Size : 16 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups & Stews
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
5 pounds unpeeled onions
1/2 cup butter -- (1 stick)
1 1/2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons paprika
1 bay leaf
7 cans beef broth -- (about 16-ounce)
divided (recommended Swanson's)
1 cup dry white wine -- optional
3/4 cup all-purpose or instant flour (such as
Wondra)
Caramel coloring or Kitchen Bouquet -- optional
2 tsps salt
french baguettes -- optional

Peel onions and slice 1/8 inch thick, preferably in a food processor. Melt
butter in a 6-quart (or larger) stockpot. Add onions; cook, uncovered,
over low heat for 1 1/2 hours, stirring occasionally. (The long cooking
time makes the onions mellow and sweet.) Stir in pepper, paprika and bay
leaf; saute over low heat 10 minutes more, stirring frequently. Pour in 6
cans broth and wine. Increase heat and bring to a boil. Dissolve flour in
remaining 1 can broth. Stir into boiling soup. Reduce heat and simmer
slowly for 2 hours. Adjust color to a rich brown with caramel coloring,
season with salt. Refrigerate overnight. To serve, heat soup in microwave
or on stove top. If desired, pour into ovenproof crocks or bowls. Top
with a slice of breat and a sprinkling of grated cheese. Heat under the
broiler until cheese melts and bubbles, about 5 minutes. Leftover soup can
be frozen. Yield: 4 quarts.

2 tablespoons butter
6 cups beef broth -- I prefer home made.

4 slices bread
Cook onions in butter until they begin to change color, let some of them

minutes Check seasoning Slightly toast bread slices. Place some of the
onion soup in each of 4 oven proof individual bowls Place 1 toast in ea
bowl Pour rest of soup to fill up to 4/5 of bowl. Toast will rise to the
surface. Sprinkle plenty of cheese on top of toast. Bake in 350 oven for 15
minutes. Turn to broil 10 minutes or until a crust forms. Note: I some
times add pieces of Gouda in the bottom of the bowls.( but then it"s not
authentic, yet it makes it just even more delicious) Bon Appetit Miriam

French Onion Soup
Recipe By :
Serving Size : 6 Preparation Time :0:00
Categories : Soups & Stews Vegetables
Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
4 Tablespoons Butter
2 Tablespoons Vegetable oil
2 Pounds Onions (about 7 cups) -- thinly sliced (about
Vidalia are best
1 Teaspoon Salt
3 Tablespoons Flour
2 Quarts Beef stock -- fresh or canned
CROUTES
12 sl 1" thick French bread
2 Teaspoons Olive oil
1 Garlic clove -- cut
1 Cup Imported Swiss -- freshly
grated OR combination of
Jack and Parmesan or your choice
In a heavy 4-5 qt saucepan or soup kettle, melt the butter with the oil
over a moderate heat. Stir in the onions and salt and cook uncovered over
low heat, stirring occasionally for 20-30 minutes, or until the onions are
a rich golden brown. Sprinkle flour over onions and cook, stirring, for 2-3
minutes. Remove the pan from the heat. In a separate saucepan, bring the
stock to a simmer, then stir the hot stock into the onions. Return the soup
to low heat and simmer, partially covered, for another 30-40 minutes,
occasionally skimming off the fat. Taste for seasoning and add salt and
pepper as needed. CROTES: While the soup simmers, make the crotes. Preheat
the oven to 3250. Spread the slices of bread in one layer on a baking sheet
and bake for 15 minutes. With a pastry brush, lightly coat both sides of
each slice with olice oil. Then turn the slices. To serve, place the crotes
in a large tureen or individual soup bowls and ladle the soup over them.
Pass the grated cheese seperately. Alternative: To make onion soup gratine,
preheat the oven to 375F. Ladle the soup into an ovenproof tureen or
individual soup bowls, top with crotes, and spread the grated cheese on
top. Sprinkle the cheese with a little melted butter or olive oil. Bake.
