1
Caramelize the Onions
In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the sliced onions, and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 30-40 minutes until they are caramelized and golden brown.
2
Add Garlic and Deglaze
Add minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Pour in the white wine and scrape the bottom of the pot to deglaze. Let it simmer for a few minutes.
3
Combine Broth and Seasonings
Add the beef broth, thyme, bay leaf, salt, and black pepper. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce heat and let it simmer for about 20 minutes.
4
Serve the Soup
Remove the bay leaf. Ladle the soup into bowls, top with croutons, and sprinkle generously with grated Gruyère cheese. Optionally, broil until the cheese is bubbly and golden.
