I love this recipe because I fool guests into thinking I slaved away for hours in the kitchen
French onion soup, a beloved classic in many restaurants, is renowned for its rich flavor and comforting warmth. While traditionally a bit of a kitchen project, this slow cooker version simplifies the process without sacrificing taste. Set your ingredients, start the timer, and let the slow cooker do the heavy lifting.
The Slow Cooker Magic:
In the first few hours, the onions in the slow cooker transform, developing a rich, deep caramelized flavor. Then, with the addition of broth, sherry, and seasonings, the slow cooker works its magic, melding the flavors over the next hour.
For that authentic touch of broiled cheese on the mug’s edge, just like in the restaurants, ladle the soup into ovenproof mugs, top with cheese and croutons, and broil to perfection.
