What Makes This French Onion Soup Special

This Double Cheese French Onion Soup is a classic French comfort food with an extra cheesy twist. Slow-cooked onions develop deep, sweet flavors, while a Dutch oven ensures even heat for perfect caramelization. Topped with a generous blend of Gruyère and Swiss cheese, it’s broiled until golden and bubbly for an irresistible finish.

Ingredients

  • 4 large yellow onions, thinly sliced

  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

  • 2 teaspoons sugar

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1/2 cup dry white wine (optional)

  • 6 cups beef or vegetable broth

  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme (or 1/2 teaspoon dried)

  • 1 bay leaf

  • 1 baguette, sliced and toasted

  • 1 1/2 cups shredded Gruyère cheese

  • 1/2 cup shredded Swiss cheese

  • Fresh parsley, chopped (optional, for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Caramelize the Onions

  1. Heat butter and olive oil in a Dutch oven over medium heat.

  2. Add sliced onions, sugar, salt, and pepper.

  3. Cook slowly for 30–40 minutes, stirring frequently, until onions are golden brown and deeply caramelized.

Step 2: Add Garlic and Deglaze

  1. Stir in minced garlic and cook for 1 minute until fragrant.

  2. Deglaze the pan with white wine (if using), scraping up browned bits from the bottom.

Step 3: Simmer the Soup

  1. Add broth, Worcestershire sauce, thyme, and bay leaf.

  2. Bring to a gentle simmer and cook for 15–20 minutes.

  3. Remove bay leaf and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.

Step 4: Prepare Toasted Bread

  1. Slice baguette and toast until lightly golden.

  2. Preheat the broiler.

Step 5: Assemble and Broil

  1. Ladle soup into oven-safe bowls.

  2. Place a slice of toasted baguette on top of each bowl.

  3. Sprinkle a generous amount of Gruyère and Swiss cheese over the bread.

  4. Broil until cheese is melted, bubbly, and lightly browned (2–5 minutes).

Step 6: Serve

  1. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.

  2. Serve immediately with extra toasted bread on the side.

Tips for Perfect French Onion Soup

  • Slow caramelization: Take your time with the onions—they develop the depth of flavor that makes this soup extraordinary.

  • Double cheese: Gruyère melts beautifully and Swiss adds nuttiness—use both for optimal richness.

  • Broil carefully: Watch the cheese closely; it can go from perfectly bubbly to burnt quickly.

  • Make ahead: Soup can be prepared a day in advance; add cheese and broil just before serving.

Serving Suggestions

  • Pair with a crisp green salad or roasted vegetables.

  • Serve as a starter or a hearty main course for lunch or dinner.

  • Complement with a glass of dry white wine for a true French experience.
