Fridays with dorie: cheese topped onion soup

  
I don't like onion soup. Really, not at all. But I made this one (it was on schedule) and it tasted great. It was a bit sweet, enough salt and the bread cheese combination was really delicious.
It was also a real filler, I only could eat one cup.

I made my own bread: french bread, which was a real good accompany with the soup. I though it probably should have been the french bread, because of the onion soup which recipe originated in France.
Dorie explained it should have been served real hot, and I did, it came straight from the broiler.
That's a great choice because the bread has a bit of a bite that way.

I will blog the recipe, of the french bread but because I'm on a holiday and I scheduled this one for friday, I didn't have the time yet, but I will adapt this post in the near future.

So happy to hear that you enjoyed this one. My husband is not an onion fan either but he really liked this soup too. I think that once the onions are caramelized they taste completely different.

All that cooking time turns them into something else, doesn't it?
The bread looks good.
Hope you enjoy your time off!
