French Onion Soup - Soupe à l'oignon Gratinée

[botbpro]

Is there a vegetarian option to this without the beef/chicken stocks? perhaps vegetable stock?

[rayano]

wow it looks beautiful =)

[shitess1]

I like the bowls ;)

[90scoolll]

it's nesassary to use wine? if i don't add wine, it'll not be a french onion soup?

[PlatypusGuitar]

@90scoolll nah you dont have to use wine if you dont want to. It doesnt make it any less authenticé I always say being a purist is limiting your options :)

[Alebri99]

Salut cela semble bon............... I luv talking ing french :D

[gabrielone81]

Good soup and beautiful cats!!!!

[macwilliams65]

This looks frickin delicious!!!

[WoundedEgo]

I'm sure this is delicious, but it seems that you could have used four onions to that much butter and stock and it still would be plenty rich. Also, some olive oil instead of all butter would have made it a bit healthier. But I'm sure it is delicious.

[PlatypusGuitar]

@WoundedEgo you can totally make a healthier version like you described and it still going to be very good. Us french people like to add too much butter to a lot of things lol

[WoundedEgo]

@PlatypusGuitar Ha ha! Yes, but you are, generally speaking, quite judicious when it comes to *portion size* which, it turns out, is the more important factor in general health! Still, I think a bigger onion ratio would have suited my diet just fine, still with great gusto.

Finally a youtube-video by Nord-American providers, that works. Looks nice and authentic. Great stuff. Have to cook for next weekend. Merci beaucoup. Leben ist zu kurz für Fast-Food und Cola-Schitt. Gutes Essen, guter Wein und Bier: das macht das Leben aus.

@tampabolt is that german? Im french canadian but fully bilingual in english. So I gather that most canadian and/or american videos dont work in some parts of the world but mine do... interesting! Thanks for sharing that and watching my videos. Or danke I guess :P

[tampabolt]

@PlatypusGuitar Hi, mostly every video works here in Germany, besides there could be some license rights on some music-videos, there'll be problems to get these videos. I took the false expression: I wanted to say, that your video/your recipt ist great. Not some kind of these nord-american uninspired fast-food junk videos, where they show you how to make an scrambled egg.

[tampabolt]

@PlatypusGuitar Yes it's German and means: " La vie est trop courte pour Fast-Food et merde coke. Bonne Alimentation, bon vin et bière: ca c'est la vie!

[HALLSYSKITCHEN]

[PlatypusGuitar]

@chefgiovanni I got these beautiful onion soup bowls at the dollar store - one looney each

[CitrineVlogging]

Thanks :)

[siribiriz]

platypus my bread always ends up being soggy, i had this totally awesome french onion where the bread was actually hard, how can i get it like that?

[PlatypusGuitar]

@siribiriz slice the bread thin horizontally and toast it to the max just before its burnt. Dont fill the soup up to the rim, leave a good inch. Make sure the bread is wider and the bowl so it rests on top of it. I hope you get the mental image of what im poorly explaining with my french brain :)

[siribiriz]

@PlatypusGuitar makes sense, thanks love

[ohjtbehaaave]

How do you make toast? :)

[PlatypusGuitar]

@ohjtbehaaave step 1 - slice bread

step 2 - put in toaster

step 3 - om nom nom ;)

One of the best looking French Onions Soups I've seen, love the big bread slice rather than croutons!

[PlatypusGuitar]

@KasCooks thats how its supposed to be made. croutons are for salad ;)

[MrJingjong]

I love the enameled cast iron pots. Great recipe!

[PlatypusGuitar]

@MrJingjong I bought them especially for the video. I wanted real onion soup dishes for a while

[catt982]

Did I miss what temperature to put it at? And is it okay if I use vegetable broth instead?

[PlatypusGuitar]

@catt982 I think I didnt say it; its medium high heat and the oven is 375 degrees. thanks for pointing that out!

[MeanMissC]

That looks SOOOOOOOOOOOOO good :)

[PlatypusGuitar]

@MeanMissC yeah its full of vitamin O (for onion) so its gotta be good for you too
