    List of Ingredients




    The Swiss have been using flour to thicken soup for hundreds of years,
    as evidenced by this ancient recipe. You can change
    this basic recipe by the addition of just about any vegetable.

    Flour w/Cheese Soup

    4 Tbs (60 ml) butter
    2 medium onions, thinly sliced
    6 Tbs (90 ml) all-purpose flour
    5 cups (1.25 L) beef stock
    Salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
    1 1/2 cups (375 ml) grated Gruyere, Emmental, or Swiss cheese

    Heat the butter in a large pot over moderate heat and saute the onions
    until tender but not brown, about 5 minutes. Stir in the flour and
    cook, stirring frequently, until golden brown, about 5 minutes. Add
    the stock and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Adjust
    seasoning with salt and pepper. Divide the cheese into 4 to 6 bowls
    and ladle the hot soup over it. Serves 4 to 6.
