Onion soup

Onion soup
A very humble dish, but believe me, on cold winter evenings, it's ideal to enjoy in front of a cozy fireplace. The only caution is not to prepare it for a romantic dinner!

Directions

It takes 8 steps in 50 min
1 Onion soup - step 1
Cut the onions in half, then into sections about 4 or 5 millimeters thick and set aside
2 Onion soup - step 2
Melt the butter in a large pot and when it's hot, add the onions and sugar
3 Onion soup - step 3
Sauté the onions over medium heat for 20 minutes, stirring continuously
4 Onion soup - step 4
When the onions are perfectly caramelized, deglaze with the white wine, allowing the alcoholic part to evaporate
5 Onion soup - step 5
Add the flour, stirring vigorously until well combined
6 Onion soup - step 6
Add the salt and half of the hot broth, then let it simmer over low heat
7 Onion soup - step 7
Gradually add the remaining broth as needed; in total, the soup should cook for another 20 minutes
Tip: I like a thick soup, but by adjusting the amount of broth, you can keep it thinner
8 Onion soup - step 8
Meanwhile, prepare the croutons by placing the bread slices in a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of olive oil, then place them on top of the soup before serving

Cost

It's such a humble dish that I struggle to even give a price per serving, but it's definitely well under one euro

Health

The only fat in the dish is the butter, which helps to create a velvety soup. If you prefer a lighter version, you can almost completely eliminate it
