Steps:
- In a Dutch oven or other heavy 5-quart pot, heat butter and oil over medium. Add onions and garlic; season with salt and pepper. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions have softened, 12 to 15 minutes.
- Uncover and continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are dark golden brown, 25 to 30 minutes more. (If bottom of pot gets too dry, add about 1/4 cup water, and scrape up browned bits with a wooden spoon.)
- Add port, and cook until syrupy, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in broths and 2 cups water; season with salt and pepper, and bring to a simmer. Serve with Cheese Toasts.
- To make Cheese Toasts: Heat broiler, with rack set 4 inches from heat. Place 8 1/2-in-thick slices of baguette on a broilerproof baking sheet. Dividing evenly, sprinkle with 1 cup coarsely grated Gruyere cheese. Broil until cheese is golden, 2 to 4 minutes.
