Santa Rosa CA. ~ For some reason, French Onion Soup came to mind on one of those colder mornings in early 2018. As Spring was approaching the cold still reminded me of com- fort food. I wanted something rich and decadent to eat. But as of late, I’ve decided to create my own versions of old time recipes and to record them with photos and to publish them. Food is great fun and I am so excited to try new foods. So


here is my version of French Onion Soup that I made in less than an hour.(It normally takes much longer to bring out fla- vors)


Ingredients:


3 onions, 1 red, 1 white, 1 yellow thinly sliced 3 tablespoons of butter 4-5 fresh 3-4 inch spriggs of fresh thyme


6 Toasted Slices of Franco American French Sour

and melt it.


Throw all the on- ions in over low heat for at least 15 minutes


or until


tender. Pour in beef broth & beef cube, Worcestershire, and fresh ground pepper and thyme leaves. Bring to boil and reduce to low simmer and cover up to 25 minutes. In bowl combine
