Classic onion soup

Ingredients

Onion - 4 pieces
Sugar - ½ teaspoon
Salt - ½ teaspoon
Olive Oil - 2 tablespoons
Campbell's Beef Broth - 4 cups
Ground Black Pepper - to taste
Croutons - 14.1 oz

Step by Step guide

Step 1

Pour olive oil into a pot and heat over medium heat.

Step 2

Add all the sliced onions, along with salt, sugar, and pepper, and cook until they become translucent.

Step 3

Reduce the heat to the lowest setting and let it simmer for about 1.5 hours, stirring occasionally. It is ready when the onion mixture has caramelized and turned golden-brown.

Step 4

Add all the broth and brandy, stirring to bring to a boil so that the broth mixes and turns brownish.

Step 5

Remove from heat, as the soup is almost ready.

Step 6

Pour the soup into ceramic bowls or pots and top each with a thick slice of previously toasted bread (grilled or toasted), generously sprinkled with cheese, and place under the broiler for 5 minutes until the cheese melts and turns golden-brown.
