Caramelized French Onion Soup with Golden Croutons
Slow-simmered onions and lean beef in a rich bone broth, topped with a crisp sourdough crouton and melted Gruyere for a savory, velvety finish.
INGREDIENTS
1 tsp olive oil
1.5 cups yellow onion
5 oz lean ground beef (93%)
1 tsp garlic
1 tsp fresh thyme
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
2 cups beef bone broth
0.5 slice sourdough bread
0.5 oz gruyere cheese
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a large pot over medium heat and add the sliced yellow onions.
Sauté the onions for 15 minutes, stirring frequently, until they are soft and deeply caramelized.
Add the lean ground beef to the pot and cook until browned, breaking it into small pieces with a spatula.
Stir in the minced garlic, fresh thyme, sea salt, and black pepper, cooking for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the beef bone broth and bring to a simmer for 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
While the soup simmers, toast the sourdough bread slice until it is golden and very crisp.
Ladle the soup into an oven-safe crock, top with the toasted bread, and sprinkle with the Gruyere cheese.
Place the crock under a broiler for 2-3 minutes until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly browned.
