JAPANESE ONION SOUP
The basic Japanese soup that's given out as an appetizer at most Japanese restaurants. Very mild, a bit salty, and a touch of tang. It's a very improvisable recipe; most of the ingredients' quantities can be changed according to taste. Use your favorite mushrooms in this recipe.

Steps:
- In a large saucepan or stockpot, combine the celery, onion, carrot, ginger, garlic, and a few of the mushrooms. Add chicken stock, beef bouillon, and water. Place the pot over high heat, and bring to a rolling boil. When the mixture reaches boiling, cover, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 45 minutes.
- Place all of the remaining mushrooms into a separate pot. When the boiling mixture is done, place a strainer over the pot with the mushrooms in it. Strain the cooked soup into the pot with the mushrooms. Discard strained materials.

Steps:
- Combine chicken broth and water in a large saucepan over high heat.
- Slice the white onion in half, then coarsely chop one half (save the other half for later).
- Add coarsely chopped onion, carrot, celery and salt to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes, or until the onions start to become translucent. As the broth simmers, heat up 1 cup of vegetable oil in a small saucepan over medium heat.
- Slice the remaining white onion into very thin slices. Separate the slices, dip the slices into the milk, then into the flour. Fry the breaded onions, a handful at a time in the oil until golden brown. Drain on a paper towel.
- When the soup has simmered for 10 minutes, strain the vegetables out of the broth and toss them out. Pour the broth back into the pan and keep it hot over low heat.
- To serve soup, ladle about 1 cup of broth into a bowl.
- Drop a few pieces of fried onion into the soup, followed by 6 to 8 mushroom slices (about 1 mushroom each) and a couple pinches of diced green onion. When the fried onions sink to the bottom of the bowl (a couple of minutes), serve the soup.

JAPANESE STEAKHOUSE ONION SOUP
This is my take on the classic Hibachi steakhouse onion soup that is typically served before the meal. I like to season further with a splash of soy sauce and pinch of white pepper.

Steps:
- Place everything but the mushrooms and green onions into a slow cooker. I added in the bottom halves of the chopped green onions at this time as well and reserved the green upper halves for garnishing. Cover and cook on high for 2-4 hours or low for 4-5 hours. An hour before serving remove the cooked veggies from the crock pot with a slotted spoon Place the sliced mushrooms into the crock pot with the broth. Give it all a good stir. Cover to cook for another hour or until the mushrooms are tender. Divide amongst the bowls and serve!
Tips:
- Choose the right onions: Yellow onions are the most commonly used for French onion soup, but you can also use white or sweet onions. If you want a sweeter soup, use sweet onions.
- Slice the onions thinly: This will help them caramelize evenly.
- Cook the onions slowly and patiently: Caramelizing onions takes time, so don't rush the process. Cook them over low heat for at least 30 minutes, or until they are golden brown and soft.
- Use a good quality beef broth: The 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 vegetables.
- Simmer the soup for at least 30 minutes: This will allow the flavors to meld and develop.
- Serve the soup with a crusty baguette and melted cheese: This is the traditional way to serve French onion soup, and it's the best way to enjoy it.
Conclusion:
French onion soup is a classic French dish that is enjoyed by people all over the world. It's a simple soup to make, but it's packed with flavor. With its caramelized onions, rich broth, and melted cheese, French onion soup is the perfect comfort food for a cold winter day.
