Cream of Onion Soup

This soup is creamy allium heaven. Better of all, it’s simple. Easy, on a regular basis components together with roasted yellow onions and garlic are blended along with white wine and hen inventory to yield an expensive soup that requires a hands-off method. 

The oven does the heavy lifting, mellowing the sharpness of the garlic and onions and pulling out their refined, candy notes. The wealthy, candy caramelized garlic taste actually shines by in each scoop. A beneficiant splash of wine is added to the roasting pan close to the tip of the cooking course of to raise up the wealthy caramelized bits and add deep taste to the soup. Mixing the onions with hen inventory and ending with heavy cream and a pat or two of butter takes the soup to a luscious state with a wealthy mouthfeel. Grated Parmesan cheese finishes all the pieces off with a refined nuttiness and umami.  

Notes from the Meals & Wine Check Kitchen

To make this dish vegetarian, merely swap the hen inventory for vegetable inventory. And to save lots of time, bake the croutons and onions on the similar time on separate racks.
