French Onion Soup is one of my favourite dishes, especially on a cold autumn or winter night. I like to bake bread, and as it begins to go stale after one day (no preservatives) I'm always searching for a way to use it up. I decided to experiment until I felt I had perfected home-made French Onion Soup. I have served it to several friends, and family, and it always gets raves. Based on my own tastes and feedback from others, this is simply the best French Onion Soup. We find that a bowl of this soup with salad is plenty for a nourishing and satisfying meal. It could also be served as an appetizer, or a lunch.
