Sai, this is it~~~

FRENCH ONION SOUP (CROCK POT RECIPE)

4 tbsp. butter
4 Large Spanish Onions
Beef Base or bullion
Couple pinches fresh Thyme
¼ tsp Ground Black Pepper
2 Quarts Beef Broth
1 Can Beef Consume
1/2 soup can sherry or 1/4 c. dry vermouth or white wine (optional)
1/2 soup can Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp. flour

Baguette
Gruyere cheese

In a skillet, melt butter and sauté onions with 1/8 tsp beef base or bullion, one at a time, until lightly brown.
Put all ingredients into a crock pot and cook on low all day or on high 5 hours.
(You can omit this if you don’t have time) Put crock pot in refrigerator overnight to bring flavors out. All fat will come to the top overnight – Spoon this off & plug crock pot back in. Cook only a few hours on low. If you cook it too long, onions get mushy.
Cut a toasted baguette (I use day old bread marked down from the store) into slices the size of the soup bowls.
Spoon out soup into oven safe bowls. Top with baguette and plenty of grated Gruyere cheese.
Bake at 450 degrees for 10 minutes (until cheese melts, then broil until cheese is slightly browned and bubbling.
~~All ingredients are approx amount – Test soup after a few hours of cooking & Season to taste.
