French Onion Soup
Posted by swm56 at recipegoldmine.com April 30, 2001
This is a recipe from a very good French cook we spent a few years with, and the best French onion soup I have ever had.
3 medium onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons butter
1 tablespoon flour
2 cups consomme
4 cups water
1/4 cup boiled milk
1/4 pound grated Swiss cheese
6 dried slices French bread
Salt and pepper
2 tablespoons melted butter
In heavy skillet, cook onions in butter until slightly brown. Sprinkle with flour and cook over low heat until golden, never allowing them to become dark brown. Add consomme and water. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly with a wooden spoon, then simmer gently for 20 minutes, uncovered.
Add milk. Pour into ovenproof casserole or individual bowls. Place slices of bread on top, sprinkle generously with cheese. Brown quickly under broiler flame.
Serves 4 to 6.
