Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Sauté the Vegetables

    In a large pot, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and minced garlic, sautéing until the onion is translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the Roux

    Sprinkle the all-purpose flour over the sautéed onions and garlic. Stir constantly for about 2-3 minutes until the flour is lightly golden.

  3. 3

    Add the Liquids

    Slowly pour in the Guinness stout and chicken broth, stirring continuously to prevent lumps. Bring the mixture to a simmer.

  4. 4

    Incorporate the Cream

    Once simmering, stir in the heavy cream, salt, black pepper, and thyme.

  5. 5

    Melt the Cheeses

    Gradually add in the cheddar cheese, Gruyère cheese, and Parmesan cheese, stirring until completely melted and smooth.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Ladle the soup into bowls, garnish with chopped fresh parsley, and enjoy!
