The Perfect Blend of Swiss and Onions
Key Ingredients for Swiss Onion Soup
To make this mouth-watering soup, you will need onions, beef broth, Swiss cheese, butter, flour, thyme, and French bread. The star of this dish is, of course, the onions. They are caramelized to perfection, giving the soup its rich and sweet flavor. The beef broth adds depth and richness to the broth, while the Swiss cheese adds a creamy and nutty taste.
The Process of Caramelizing Onions
Caramelizing onions may seem like a daunting task, but it's actually quite simple. Heat butter in a large pot over medium heat. Once melted, add sliced onions and thyme. Cook for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized. This step is crucial as it creates the base of the soup, adding depth and sweetness.
The Creamy and Cheesy Twist
Once the onions are caramelized, it's time to add the other ingredients. Sprinkle flour over the onions and stir to combine. This will thicken the soup and give it a creamy texture. Then, gradually pour in beef broth while stirring. Let the soup simmer for 10 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together.
Top it Off with French Bread and Swiss Cheese
No Swiss Onion Soup is complete without the addition of French bread and Swiss cheese. Slice the bread into thick pieces and toast it in the oven. Once toasted, place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each piece of bread. Place the soup in oven-safe bowls and place the bread on top. Broil for 2-3 minutes, until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
Enjoy the Deliciousness
Now that your Swiss Onion Soup is hot and ready, it's time to dig in and enjoy! The combination of the caramelized onions, beef broth, and melted Swiss cheese creates a hearty and flavorful soup that is sure to please. Serve it as a starter or a main course, and watch as your family and friends rave about this delicious and unique twist on French Onion Soup.
