This recipe makes the best French onion soup we’ve ever made at home, and to be honest, it knocks the socks off most that we’ve had at restaurants, too. Take care to caramelize your onions, as that’s where the rich onion flavor comes from.

Ingredients

3 ½ pounds (1590g) yellow onions, peeled and thinly sliced (6 to 7 medium)

4 tablespoons (57g) European-style salted butter, like Kerrygold, plus more for bread

1/4 cup (2 ounces) sweet vermouth, sherry, or brandy

1/4 cup (2 ounces) dry white wine or Lillet Blanc; see notes

4 to 5 cups (950ml to 1180ml) chicken broth or beef stock, see tips

1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves

1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt, plus more to taste

1 French baguette or rustic loaf, sliced into 1/2-inch slices, 12 slices

2 cloves garlic

1 cup (114g) grated Gruyere cheese, 4 ounces
