Time 40m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

6 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 large onions, halved and thinly sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 demi baguette, cut on the bias into 1/4-inch thick slices
1 tablespoon dry sherry
1/2 cup low-sodium beef broth
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
8 ounces (1 bar) cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup shredded whole milk mozzarella
1/4 cup sour cream
2 tablespoons finely grated Parmesan
1 tablespoon chopped chives

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to broil.
  • Melt 4 tablespoons of the butter in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet over medium heat. Add the onions, garlic, thyme, 1/2 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are very tender and caramelized, about 15 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter in a small saucepan over medium heat, then brush butter on both sides of the bread. Transfer to a baking sheet. Broil until lightly toasted and golden, about 1 minute per side. Set aside for serving.
  • Once the onions are caramelized, add the sherry and continue to cook until the liquid has reduced completely, about 1 minute. Pour in the beef broth and Worcestershire and scrape any brown bits from the bottom of the skillet with a wooden spoon. Simmer until the broth has reduced by half, about 2 minutes more. Remove from the heat.
  • Stir in the cream cheese, 1/2 cup of the mozzarella, sour cream and Parmesan until smooth and creamy. Top with the remaining 1/2 cup mozzarella. Broil until the mozzarella on top is lightly browned and the dip is bubbling at the edges, about 2 minutes. Top with chopped chives and serve with toasted bread.

Categories     Appetizers/Snacks

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 Vidalia onions (chopped)
¼ cup dry sherry
1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme leaves
salt and freshly ground black pepper
8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
½ cup sour cream
3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
2 cups grated Gruyère cheese (divided)
chopped fresh chives (for garnish)
1 baguette loaf
olive oil
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a 12-inch skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and toss them in the butter. Cut a piece of parchment paper the same size of the inside of the skillet. Place the parchment paper on top of the onions as they cook. Cook over low heat for about 25 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to pick up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan.
  • Pre-heat oven to 375ºF.
  • When the onions have softened and browned, add the sherry, Worcestershire sauce and thyme leaves, tossing well to combine. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper and simmer for a few more minutes.
  • Remove the skillet from the heat. In a large bowl combine the softened cream cheese, sour cream, Parmesan cheese and ½ cup of the Gruyère cheese. Fold the caramelized onions into the mixture. Spread the mixture into a 2-quart casserole dish. Top with the remaining Gruyère cheese and bake in the 375ºF oven for 15 minutes.
  • Switch the oven setting to broil and leave the casserole under the broiler for 2 to 5 minutes, until the top has browned and is bubbly.
  • Garnish with the chopped chives and serve the hot dip with crostini.

WARM FRENCH ONION DIP - MW



Warm French Onion Dip - MW image

We were at Red Robin and I tried the warm French onion dip (it comes with freshly made Yukon potato chips but I ate it with their fries). O-M-G! YUM! So the other night when we did take out from there, I tried to recreate it at home. This was the result. Hubby thinks I nailed it!

Categories     Cheese Appetizers

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 ounce(s) cream cheese
4 ounce(s) sour cream
1/2 cup(s) mayonnaise
1 - envelope onion soup mix
- milk

Steps:

  • Unwrap Cream Cheese, place on a plate and microwave on HIGH for 35-40 seconds (I have an 1100 watt microwave)
  • In a medium-sized bowl, place softened cream cheese, sour cream, mayo and soup mix. Blend using the medium speed of your hand mixer until well combined, scraping sides as needed. If the dip seems a bit thick, thin out with a bit of milk (start with 1 tablespoon and repeat until dip is at desired consistency).
  • Spoon dip into a microwave-safe serving dish and warm in the microwave for a short period of time (40 seconds?) - I'd probably go 30 seconds and then add increments of 5 seconds until heated as desired. Don't cook too long or the dip might break (ask me how I know?).
  • Note: I used about 2 tablespoons of Vogue Cuisine Onion Soup & Seasoning Base (Low Sodium, Gluten Free, All Natural Ingredients). I suppose you could use room-temp cream cheese and warm this in the oven (toaster oven), but I was in a hurry.

Tips for Making the Best Warm French Onion Soup Dip:

- Use high-quality ingredients, especially the onions. Sweet onions, like Vidalia or Walla Walla, work best. - Slice the onions thinly and evenly so they cook evenly. - Cook the onions slowly and patiently over low heat until they are deeply caramelized and golden brown. This process can take up to an hour, but it's worth it for the rich flavor. - Use a good quality beef broth. If you don't have homemade beef broth, use a low-sodium store-bought broth. - Add a splash of white wine to the soup mixture for extra flavor. - Use a good quality cheese blend. A combination of Gruyère, Swiss, and Parmesan is classic, but you can use any cheeses that you like. - Serve the dip immediately with your favorite dippers, such as baguette slices, crostini, or crackers.

Conclusion:

This warm French onion soup dip is the perfect appetizer for any party or gathering. It's easy to make, and it's always a crowd-pleaser. The rich, flavorful broth, the melted cheese, and the crispy onions are all irresistible. So next time you're looking for a delicious and easy appetizer, give this warm French onion soup dip a try. You won't be disappointed!
