French Onion Soup - what could be more of a classic French dish? A true winter warmer. The recipe was taken from The Best Ever French Cooking Course by Carole Clements & Elizabeth Wolf-Cohen, page 12. An easy recipe to follow with great tasting soup as a result. Using Spanish white onions give this soup a sweeter flavour than using English whites as Spanish onions are a bit milder than English. I used Knorr stock pots to add to the volume of stock that I already had in and are a great alternative to making ones own stock - that will come later in my cooking venture. the addition of really thick baguette croutons topped with Gruyere cheese really did finish off this dish very nicely and is a step that I think should not be missed. You can add brandy to the soup at the very end, but as this was for lunch I decided to forgo this but would add it if doing this dish for a dinner party.
