French Onion Soup advice please:

[AlonzoJahue]

I ordered French Onion Soup from the Packing House Restaurant in Galesburg, Illinois. It was out of this world. I want to learn to make French onion soup. Does anyone have a recipe they have used and are happy with it?

Thank you,

Lonnie

I'll be watching this thread. French onion soup...mmmmmmm.

I know it's slumming, but I like Progresso French onion with sliced french bread and swiss cheese melted in the broiler and placed on top.

Ingredients: One package of French onion soup.

That goes the extent of my cooking knowledge.

Hi lonnie,

When I used to make it, you merely slice up 4 or 5 med. size onions. Sautee in butter or margerine for a few minutes and then add a beef broth and simmer for 30 min. or so. Of course, you can salt and pepper to taste and add whatever other spices you might like to make it your own. A little curry goes good with about anything.

However, as with about any recipe, people have different tastes as to what is best to them. Google some recipes and try a few. It isn't particularly hard to make except for the peeling and slicing the onions part. The more pungent the onions, the more tears will be shed.

God bless,
In Christ, ted

This actually sounds pretty easy to do. I also googled some recipes. Guess I'll have french onion soup for dinner today. Thanks for the help!
