French Onion Soup in a Sourdough Bread Bowl
Ingredients
- 3 large onions yellow are best
- 1 stick butter
- 32 oz beef broth
- 16 oz chicken broth
- 1 tsp garlic salt
- 1 tsp thyme
- 2 tbsp beef broth base
- 2 tbsp flour
- 1 tbsp red wine optional for deglazing pot
Instructions
- Melt 1 stick of butter in a large pot.
- Thinly slice 3-4 large onions and place in the pot.
- Cook the onions on medium heat until they are golden brown stirring occasionally. This could take up to 45 minutes.
- Once onions are fully caramelized, deglaze pot with red wine. (optional). I just put a splash in and stir well until nothing is sticking to the bottom of the pot.
- Pour in beef broth and chicken broth.
- Add in beef base, garlic salt and thyme.
- Add in flour and stir allowing soup to thicken a bit.
- Turn on the broiler.
- Ladle soup into sourdough bread bowls or oven safe bowls and place on a baking sheet.
- Cover with cheese of your choice, provolone is our favorite.
- Allow to broil in oven for 3-4 minutes until cheese is melted and bubbly.
- Enjoy!
