How to cook french onion soup

Wash and peel your onions.

Slice the onion. I recommend using a food processor.

Melt the butter in a Dutch oven over medium high heat.

Transfer of the onion into the Dutch oven. Cook for 10 minutes and stir and every 3 to 4 minutes. Don't worry it may seem like a lot of onion , but it will shrink.

Change the heat to medium-low. Cook for another 35 to 40 minutes stirring every five minutes.

The onion should be golden brown . The onion should have shrunk.

Add thyme , pepper, beef broth and water all at once. Stir to combine.

Cover and bring to a boil.

Serve with french bread and cheese. Enjoy!
