Ingredients:
- 6-8 sweet onions
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon margarine
- Cream or milk of your choice (optional)
- Stock (optional)
- Herbs, salt, and pepper to taste
Instructions:
-
Preheat Large Saucepan: Begin by preheating a large saucepan on medium heat. This will ensure even cooking and optimal flavor development.
-
-
Saute Onions: Add the butter or margarine to the preheated saucepan. Stir in the sweet onions, ensuring they are well coated with the butter. This initial step helps to enhance the sweetness and flavor of the onions.
-
Simmer: Cover the saucepan and reduce the heat to simmer. Allow the onions to cook gently for approximately 1 hour. This slow cooking process allows the onions to release their natural sweetness, creating a rich and flavorful base for the soup.
-
Uncover and Enhance Flavor: After 1 hour, remove the lid from the saucepan. You’ll notice that the sweet onions have released their naturally sweet nectar, adding depth to the soup’s flavor profile.
-
Adjust Consistency: At this stage, you have the option to add cream or your choice of milk to the soup, as well as stock if desired. Simmer the soup uncovered until it reaches the desired thickness and texture. If you prefer a richer soup, use less additional liquid.
-
Season to Taste: Once the soup has reached your preferred consistency, season it with herbs, salt, and pepper according to your taste preferences. This final step adds a burst of flavor and elevates the overall enjoyment of the dish.
