I love French Onion soup and tonight was my first time making it. I used only 1 T of flour, 2 1/4 C of water, added 1 T of Worcestershire sauce, and 1 tsp of beef soup base in addition to the beef broth. I lightly buttered my French bread, added some garlic salt and toasted them. It was restaurant quality!

I used half the butter called for, but the soup still managed to taste impressively rich and buttery. For the cheese I used shredded mozzarella and thinly sliced gruyere. Definately resturant quality flavor from this recipe.

This is one easy, tasty soup to prepare. My husband loved it, said it was as good or better than ones served at restaurants. I omitted the parmesan cheese and used shredded swiss only, but much more and 1/4 cup. Success!

Extremely simple and tasted fantastic. I would not have thought such a simple version of French Onion Soup could taste so good!

Pretty good, not not as flavorful as I would have liked. I toasted some bread cubes myself and threw them in a bowl with some mozzarella cheese and it was better like that.

At first I was really disapointed. The soup part seemed to taste like beef broth more then anything and I wasn't that impressed. HOWEVER...once the french bread was in the bowl and the cheese was on top I totally changed my mind. It was very good. The ease and taste makes this a 5 star! I only used 3T of butter and there was no excess butter in the soup.

This was a really good recipe. Great taste, the thyme was nice. I agree about the butter though, a bit too much. Will cut back on this next time.

I made a couple of changes to the recipe based on some of the reviews and to suit our taste. I omitted the flour completely and added a bay leaf and some worchestershire sauce. I used 1 large spanish onion and 1 large white onion. Sauteed those in the butter with salt & pepper. I added about 5.5 cups of beef broth and simmered for half an hour with a bay leaf. I removed the bay leaf and spooned the soup over toasted thick slices of french bread. Topped with swiss and baked at 425 for 10 minutes. It was fantastic!! I will definitely be making this again.

Sauteed onions with butter and a good 1/2 cup white wine. Added worsteshire and more wine and let simmer. Glad I added the extras as it was a little bland. Make sure to add salt and pepper! I used cheesy french bread and it turned out great.

Very easy to make and it was delicious. I made it early in the day and then simmered it in the crockpot for a few hours, and then continued with the rest of the recipe. Very GOOD!!

This was the first time I've ever made French Onion Soup. I thought the recipe was wonderful. I did use three cans of beef broth and less water as other reviews suggested. I used two onions as the recipe called for and I thought that was perfect for my family. My only problem with this recipe, was the amount of butter it called for. I thought this made the soup way to oily. Next time I'd use much less butter or even water to saute the onions. Other than that I thought it was wonderful. I'll absolutley make it again. My Husband loved it. My kids wouldn't touch it, but hey they're kids and it does have onions in it. : )

This is a great soup, my boyfriend and I make it all the time! We substitute a cup of red wine for some of the water, and add a splash of cream, or half and half, or whatever's in the fridge to make the broth thicker instead of the flour. Sometimes we'll add garlic and pepper for a little kick.

My husband loves French Onion Soup. We were excited to try this recipe. The only thing was the broth was a little light for hubby's liking. I will definitely use this recipe again.

This was the first recipe that I tried from allrecipes, and I was very impressed! I added a beef bouillon cube to the water, used salad croutons instead of the bread (they stay crunchier),and used mozzarella cheese on top. Excellent soup that I make often!
