    Recipe Introduction



    We have been trying French onion soup in restaurants for
    years and my family and friends agree none can compare to my
    recipe for taste and simplicity of preparation. Makes 4 to 6

    List of Ingredients








    4 cups sliced onions
    4 (10.5 ounce) cans beef broth
    1/2 cup unsalted butter
    2 tablespoons olive oil
    2 tablespoons dry sherry (optional)
    1 teaspoon dried thyme
    salt and pepper to taste
    1 (1 pound) loaf French
    bread, sliced
    6 slices provolone cheese
    3/4 cup diced Swiss cheese
    1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese

    Recipe




    Directions
    1 Melt butter in an 8 quart stock pot on medium heat.
    Add olive oil and stir. Add onions and continually stir
    until tender and translucent. Do not brown the onions.
    2 Add beef stock, sherry and thyme. Season with salt and
    pepper, and simmer for 30 minutes.
    3 Ladle soup into individual, oven safe, serving bowls
    and place one slice of bread on top, (it can also be
    broken into pieces, whichever you prefer). Layer cheese on
    top of bread; placing a slice of provolone,1/2 slice diced
    Swiss and then Parmesan cheese. Place bowls on cookie sheet
    and broil until cheese bubbles and browns slightly.
