Bone Marrow & Onion Soup Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Prepare the Bone Marrow

   Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Place the bone marrow pieces on a baking sheet and roast for about 15-20 minutes, until the marrow is soft and begins to separate from the bone.

2. 2

   Caramelize the Onions

   In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are caramelized and golden brown, about 20-25 minutes.

3. 3

   Combine the Ingredients

   Add the beef broth, apple brandy, salt, black pepper, and thyme to the pot with the caramelized onions. Bring to a simmer and cook for another 10 minutes.

4. 4

   Add the Bone Marrow

   Scoop the roasted bone marrow from the bones and add it to the soup. Stir gently to combine.

5. 5

   Prepare the Topping

   In a separate bowl, mix the breadcrumbs with melted butter (optional) and season with salt and pepper. Spread the mixture evenly on a baking sheet and toast in the oven until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

6. 6

   Serve the Soup

   Ladle the soup into bowls, sprinkle with fontina cheese, and top with toasted breadcrumbs. Serve immediately.
