How to make it

  • In a large pot, saute the onions in the butter over medium heat until brown, but not burned.
  • Sprinkle with flour and stir a few times to form a roux. Gradually add 2½ quarts of water, then the salt, pepper, and herbs. Cook over low heat for 40 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, cut the bread into ½-inch slices and lightly dry them in a 250 degree oven. When the soup is done, discard the sprigs and bay leaves.
  • Place the bread in 4 to 6 individual ovenproof soup bowls or 1 large soup tureen. Ladle the stock over the bread and cover with cheese. Place the bowl(s) in a 450 degree oven and cook a few minutes until the cheese is melted and a golden colour.
  • Serves 4 to 6
