French Onion Soup



Hey fellas! Wanna impress a special lady?  Make her this soup!! (better yet, make it together!) 






Ingredients to make this awesome soup for 2 people: 

4 medium yellow onions(can use red onions too or a combination).
1 Table spoon butter.
1 table spoon extra virgin olive oil.
2 cup fulls of Gruyere cheese(or any good melting cheese you prefer: cheddar for example). 
1/4 cup of good red wine(You can also add cognac if you wanna step it up a notch!)
1 teaspoon of good red white vinegar(this is optional but i like it cause it gives a nice zip). 

To make croutons: you'll need 1 loaf of good crusty country bread like a french baguette or ciabatta). Stale is actually better for this! Great way to use stale bread.
For the broth: I use a 50-50 combination of Beef and Chicken broth made from bouillons. 
Herbs: 3 bay leaves and a few thyme leaves.  
Salt and white pepper. 

Follow the video recipe below and enjoy one of the BEST soups you'll ever eat!!




Cheers!
