Tuscan Onion Soup Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Sauté the Onions

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 25-30 minutes.

2. 2

   Add Garlic

   Add the minced garlic to the pot and sauté for an additional 2-3 minutes until fragrant.

3. 3

   Combine Broth and Seasonings

   Pour in the vegetable broth, and add thyme, bay leaves, salt, and black pepper. Bring the soup to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for 30 minutes.

4. 4

   Prepare Baguette

   While the soup is simmering, preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast them in the oven for about 5-7 minutes until golden brown.

5. 5

   Serve the Soup

   Remove the bay leaves from the soup. Ladle the soup into bowls, top each with a slice of toasted baguette, and sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese and fresh parsley before serving.
