French Onion Soup

(freedom onion soup ha ha ha... ;-)

(for ~2-4 servings)


Ingrediants:

1-2 TBsp. Margarine, Butter, Olive Oil, whatever...

1-3 White Onions, (depending on size) (POTENT onions... _NOT_ Vidalia, etc...)
As much fresh garlic as you like ;-)

2&1/2 -5C of bouillion/stock
(vegetable, beef, mushroom, homemade stock. whatever, "thin liquid")

1-3 Tsp. pepper (preferably white), garlic powder (_if not used fresh_),
pinch of cumin, bay leave, ???, etc... use your imagination... to taste...

I prefer Provalone !!! 
 

Directions:

Ingredients are listed in order....

Sautee Onion and Garlic with Oil till Onion begins to turn translucent.

Add Spices to taste.

Add liquid (stock/bouillon) of choice. (should be thin, think soup, NOT stew)

Simmer 5-10 mins. 

Ladle soup into "oven-safe" bowls, sparing 1" 

Place one slice of bread (or 1 layer croutons, etc....) on top of soup

Place Cheese on top of Bread (sliced, shredded, what ever... be generous....)

Chow Down...
