French Onion Soup

Ingredients

• 1 kg onions (about 6), thinly sliced
• 3 tbsp butter + 1 tbsp oil
• 1 tsp sugar, pinch of salt
• ½ cup dry white wine (or a splash of sherry)
• 1.2 L good beef stock
• 1 tbsp flour, 1 tsp thyme, 1 bay leaf
• Baguette slices, toasted
• 1½ cups grated Gruyère

Instructions

1. Melt the butter and oil in a heavy pot. Add the onions, sugar, and salt.
2. Cook over medium-low, stirring regularly, 45–60 minutes until deep golden brown and jammy. Don't rush.
3. Stir in the flour, cook 1 minute, then deglaze with the wine, scraping the pot.
4. Add the stock, thyme, and bay. Simmer 20 minutes; season.
5. Ladle into oven-safe bowls; top each with toasted baguette and plenty of Gruyère.
6. Broil until the cheese is bubbling and golden. Serve at once (careful — hot).
