French Onion Soup

6 servings

30 minutes

French onion soup is a true embodiment of the simplicity and elegance of French cuisine. Its history dates back to the Middle Ages when caramelized onions and hearty broth formed the staple diet of commoners. The delicate aroma of sautéed onions, the rich flavor of white wine, and the depth of chicken broth create a harmony complemented by light 'Lambert' cheese and crispy croutons. Baking in a clay pot allows the ingredients to merge into a unified symphony of flavors, making each spoonful rich and refined. This soup is perfect for cozy winter evenings when you want to warm up and enjoy an authentic taste of France.
