French Onion Soup (Beef Broth)

Ingredients

• 3 large Yellow Onions
• 2 tbsp Olive Oil
• 8 cups Beef Broth
• 1/4 cup Dry Sherry
• 1 tsp Dried Thyme
• 1 leaf Bay Leaf
• 8 slices Gluten-Free Baguette
• 1 cup Dairy-Free Mozzarella Shreds
• 1/2 tsp Salt
• 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

Instructions

1. 1Slice the 3 large Yellow Onions thinly.
2. 2Heat the 2 tbsp of Olive Oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot over medium-low heat (about 250°F / 121°C). Add the sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they are deeply caramelized and golden brown, which should take about 30-40 minutes. They will smell sweet and look deeply browned.
3. 3Pour in the 8 cups of Beef Broth and the 1/4 cup of Dry Sherry. Add the 1 tsp of Dried Thyme and the 1 Bay Leaf. Bring the soup to a simmer and cook for 15 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
4. 4Preheat the broiler. Ensure the oven rack is positioned about 6 inches from the heat source.
5. 5Carefully ladle the hot soup into 4 oven-safe bowls.
6. 6Place two slices of the 8 slices of Gluten-Free Baguette on top of the soup in each bowl. Sprinkle the 1 cup of Dairy-Free Mozzarella Shreds evenly over the bread.
7. 7Place the bowls under the preheated broiler. Broil for 2-3 minutes, watching closely, until the bread is toasted and the 1 cup of Dairy-Free Mozzarella Shreds is melted and bubbly.
8. 8Carefully remove the bowls from the broiler. Stir in the 1/2 tsp of Salt and the 1/4 tsp of Black Pepper. Serve immediately.
