    List of Ingredients




    2 1/3 c Milk
    2 Bay Leaves
    1/4 ts Grated Nutmeg
    6 tb Butter
    2 lg Onions, finely sliced
    9 tb All-Purpose Flour
    6 c Chicken Stock
    Salt
    Black Pepper
    1 1/2 c Crumbled Stilton Cheese

    Recipe



    Pour the milk into a saucepan, add the bay leaves and nutmeg, and bring
    almost to a boil. Remove from heat, cover, and leave to steep for 20
    minutes.

    Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large pan, add the onions, and cook very
    gently, stirring occasionally, for 10 minutes or until they are soft but
    not browned.

    Add the flour and cook, stirring, for 2 minutes. Strain the milk and
    gradually blend it into the onion and flour mixture. Add the stock, and
    salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil, then simmer, partially covered,
    for 10 minutes.

    Add the cheese to the pan and stir over very low heat until it is melted;
    do not let soup boil or the cheese will become stringy. Serve immediately.
