Time 40m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 tablespoons butter
1 onion, sliced
½ teaspoon dried thyme
5 (10.5 ounce) cans beef consomme
6 bay leaves
½ cup white wine
1 French baguette, cut into 1/2 inch slices
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium high heat. Place the onion in the butter and saute for 5 to 10 minutes, or until tender. Stir in the thyme and remove from heat.
  • In a large pot over high heat, combine the consomme, bay leaves and white wine, if desired. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to low, stir in the sauteed onions and allow to heat through, about 10 to 15 minutes.
  • Ladle soup into 4 individual oven-safe bowls, filling each about 3/4 of the way. Top each bowl with 2 slices of baguette bread and then cover each with the cheese.
  • Bake at 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for 10 to 15 minutes, or until cheese is melted and bubbly.

This soup was delicious! The caramelized onions were so flavorful and the broth was so rich and hearty. I loved the addition of the Gruyère cheese on top. It really took the soup to the next level. I will definitely be making this again.

This soup was a bit too salty for my taste, but overall it was still a good soup. The caramelized onions were very flavorful and the broth was rich and hearty. I think next time I'll use less salt.
