French Onion Soup

The traditional way to serve French onion soup is gratinéed with croutons or a larger piece of bread with cheese floating on top. French onion soup is made from onions that have been gently sautéed and then boiled in water or beef stock. Although onion soups have existed in France since the Middle Ages, the popular variety comes from the middle of the 19th century. French Onion soup is warm and flavorful, great for the fall as the weather gets colder.
