Tips:

  • Use a variety of onions: Using a combination of yellow, white, and red onions creates an aromatic and flavorful soup.
  • Caramelize the onions slowly: Caramelizing the onions slowly over low heat brings out their natural sweetness and adds a rich, golden color to the soup.
  • Use a good quality beef broth: The beef broth is the base of the soup, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a broth that is made with real beef bones and has a rich flavor.
  • Add a splash of white wine: White wine adds a touch of acidity and brightness to the soup. If you don't have white wine, you can use chicken broth or water.
  • Use a variety of cheeses: Using a combination of cheeses adds a complex and flavorful topping to the soup. Gruyère, Emmental, and Parmesan are all good choices.
  • Toast the bread before serving: Toasted bread helps to absorb the soup and adds a nice texture. You can also use croutons or a baguette.
