Lunch: Golden Onion Soup

Recipe by Woman's Day Kitchen Classic and simple, there's really nothing more satisfying than a soup of sweet, caramelized onions simmered in savory beef broth.

Ingredients

2 tbsp. unsalted butter
2 tbsp. olive oil
1 1/2 lb. onions
1/2 lb. red onions
kosher salt
Pepper
1 tbsp. all-purpose flour
2 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 c. dry white wine
6 sprig fresh thyme
2 c. low-sodium beef broth
2 oz. Gruyère

Instructions

Heat butter and oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onions, season with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper, and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until very tender, 12 to 15 minutes.
Reduce heat to medium-low and cook, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until onions are golden brown, 20 to 25 minutes.
Sprinkle with flour and cook for 2 minutes; stir in vinegar.
Add wine and simmer for 3 minutes. Add thyme, broth, and 4 cups water and bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Spoon soup into bowls and sprinkle with cheese and additional thyme, if desired.
