    "You have to be in the kitchen for an hour." You say that like it's a bad thing - just watch UA-cam videos while cooking, preferably past Preppy Kitchen videos. I love the "pass by every once in a while" demonstration, just in case folks have no idea what passing by a pot entails. LOVE each and every video you make, so thanks for making our time together so entertaining.

      If you cut the onions in half they won’t roll off the cutting board…. Every chef does that…

    This is my husbands favourite and, as he's not well at the moment, his appetite is a bit 'off' so I think I might make this for tonight. Thanks for the inspiration x

    A french man taught me to make this soup many years ago. He told me I could put the wine or not and that it's made traditionally both ways. I'm not a fan so i don't put it in and it's still absolutely delicious and one of my favorite winter soups. He also told me that the longer it boils the better it tastes. As you take out to serve you add more water and boil again. In the country side old farmers would leave a pot by the fire and just add onto it whenever it boiled down. Eventually it's almost black but it's incredibly flavorful. You always had something warm and nutritious when you came in from the cold.
    Also for vegetarians you can omit the broth and use plain water and it's still amazing.

      To me, soup doesn’t have much flavor without a decent stock. I make a big vegetable stock & freeze by the quart. Lately, I’ve canned it, using my pressure canner (water bath is only for high acid foods). My recipe comes from “Love Soup” by Anna Thomas…great soup book!

    • @sfnurh
      @sfnurh 5 місяців тому

      Very cool. Also, it's not called French onion soup because it's from France, it's called that because of the thin cutting technique of the onion.

    John, I just made this and it was fantastic. My family had seconds. I really appreciate your traditional, no-shortcut philosophy to cooking. I really enjoy putting effort and time into my dishes as this is a way of showing love and care for those we love. A French onion soup made the right way is a wonderful example of this philosophy. ❤

    @john you're absolutely right when you say if they say 20 mins to caramelise onions they're lying. Hahaha! One recipe I often make is a caramelised onions and Roquefort quiche. The onions do take nearly an hr to be reduced n properly caramelised. What I do it use my food processor to slice a few kgs of onions, get a huge batch of caramelised onions done and freeze half to use in soups, Stroganoff or with burgers.

    This was a great recipe to watch, and covering the onions with the lid for the first cook/sweat is key! I laughed when you said that people who tell you it takes 20 minutes to caramelize onions are lying, so true I remember years ago reading that and then wondering what am I doing wrong when it takes me 3 times as much time lol. Thank you for this video, making this today and wanted to watch someone else make it as a refresher.

    Soooo delicious! Hadn’t made onion soup in years but had too many onions so watched a few videos and settled on this one and it came out perfect. I followed the recipe except I added about a tablespoon of better than bouillon because my store brand broth was weak. Also, I didn’t have wine so I used a little cooking sherry.
    Really an excellent recipe and easy to follow video. Thank You!!

    John, like you, I have a very hard time cutting whole onions into slices. I've learned to cut my onions in half vertically. Then I'm able to slice them more uniformly & in thinner slices.( It gives the onion more stability to slice). I've never used flour in my recipe, but I'm giong to try it next time I make this soup. Thanks for the recipe!
