This is a rough guide on my french onions soup. It isn't the best but it is still pretty good.
Essentially, the recipe is (3-3.5):(3-3.5)1 beef
Anyway, it is roughly as follows
4-6 sweet onions
3 Tbsp oil
1/4 cup white flour (optional)
3.5 cups chicken broth (or bouillon. See instructions)
3.5 cups beef broth (or bouillon. See instructions)
1-1.5 cups white wine
bread and cheese
Over medium - low heat, caramelize the onions with the oil. Use the low heat and stir. It will take about 30 minutes.
The flour essentially makes a roux. If using, add for the last 5-10 minutes with the onions. Stir often to make sure it doesn't burn.
Add theliquid. If using bouillon, use low sodium and make it strong. Also, feel free to add some no-sodium bouillonfor extraflavor. Stir well and let simmer for 30-60 minutes or more. The long simmer is important to impart the onion flavor to the broth
Ladle over toasted bread and then melt cheese on top (broiler or torch)
