French Onion Soup

• 6 cups onions, very thinly sliced
• 1 tablespoon sugar
• 12 teaspoon white pepper
• 1 teaspoon season salt
• 13 cup unsalted butter
• 6 cups beef broth
• 8 slices crusty bread, toasted (I use French)
• 12 cup swiss cheese, shredded

1. In a large pot, cook onions, sugar, salt and pepper over medium-low for about 20-25 minutes.
2. (Until onions are caramelized.
3. ).
4. Add beef broth and bring to a boil.
5. Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 30 minutes.
6. To serve there are two options I do:.
7. One is to put soup in oven proof bowls, put a slice of the toasted bread on top, then sprinkle cheese on top.
8. Broil in oven for about 5 minutes or until cheese is melted.
9. Second is to place toast on a small plate, top with cheese and put in microwave for 20-30 seconds, then scoop that onto soup.
10. Both ways work well.
11. *I use a mandolin chopper to slice onions- works SOOO well.
