If you have ever wondered how to make French onion soup then this will be the perfect recipe for a cosy night in or impressing guests.  

Our best French onion soup recipe, is where simple ingredients make an amazing comfort food.  What is the difference between onion soup and French onion soup?  Well the caramelised onions in French onion soup are the white/yellow onion only and don’t use a mix of onions.  The biggest tip of all with this soup, is not to cheat the caramelisation of the onion process.  Yes it takes time, but the reward on taste will be out of this world.

This truly is an easy onion soup recipe, and if you want to make it into a crockpot French onion soup, or slow cooker French onion soup, then you can.  However, DO not skip the caramelisation of the onions process.  It’s this lengthy slow caramelising of the onions that makes the best tasting French onion soup.   Once you have done this step and evaporated the wine off, you can place in a slow cooker and cook slowly for an hour or so on low.

How to make the best french onion soup recipe this has bags of flavor provided you follow my tips now you going to need 1.5 kg of onions peel them cut them in half and then slice them so that they’re thin but not too thin then you want to

Add 60 G of butter and 2 tbspoon of olive oil to the pan you want to melt that down and then add in 2 tspoons of sugar I’m just using some brown sugar here and then melt that down as well then it’s time to add the onion yeah

There’s rather a lot it’s easier to sweat it down a bit because you are going to be cooking this for an hour and a half and you must not skip this process this is what gives it flavor every 15 minutes or so give it a stir

For the last half an hour take the lid off and increase the heat a bit you’ll see it catching on the bottom this is great this is just going to add more flavor and more color to your dish so carry on with it and then about 2 to 3

Minutes before the end of the 1 and 1/2 hours add in two crushed garlic cloves now the bottom of that pan is looking rather Grim but that is Flavor it’s going to taste and look so good and we don’t need to worry because we’re adding

250 Ms of dry white wine and what that does is it de glazes the pan just give it a gentle scrub at the bottom there now transfer all that mixture once it’s evaporated into a big saucepan we’re going to add in two bay leaves and 1.5 L

Of real good tasting beef stock it’s at this point you could transfer to a slow cooker and cook on low for around about an hour but I’m just using the saucepan I’m adding in a good grinding of pepper and a little pinch of salt because my

Stock is good then you want to cook if it’s on a stove for half an hour now whilst it is cooking I do like to make some like little toasty crout on things and I just take some sourdough bread I grill it and then I add on some grw

Cheese and Grill that further so it’s all nice and melted then I want to transfer it to something nice I do have these lovely soup bowls and plates all the details are in the bio but I love these little French onion pots they’re so beautiful great for little chili con

Caries curries and stews as well really useful and then you just transfer that beautiful soup over to your pots add on those little croutons little bit of parsley or whatever you’ve got and enjoy now don’t forget the full written recipe is on my website you know it by now cookingwith emily. go.
