FRENCH ONION SOUP

Based on this incredible video: Townsends

Basically:

  1. Cut up a bunch of onions
  2. Put a ton of butter (probably 1 stick) into a sauce pan and brown the onions
  3. When they start to brown, add flour
  4. Add 3 pints of boiling water
  5. Take a crust of bread and remove all of the soft parts. Chop it up to bits and put that in there.
  6. Now, eggs! Remove the whites from 3 eggs. Discard the whites. Add a little bit of vinegar.
  7. Take a little bit of soup from the onion stuff you’ve been working on. Just a littleeeee. Pour it in to the egg yellows while stirring, just to temper the eggs so they don’t cook immediately when you put them into the main soup.
  8. Put the eggs into the main soup.
  9. Now it’s essentially done. You can let it simmer for a while, add salt/pepper/other seasoning if needed.
  10. Serve it up!
