This soup was great! I ended up only using two and a half onions, because a vidalia I used was HUGE. I used reduced-sodium beef broth, but next time I will use regular beef broth, because I ended up adding salt. I used red wine instead of white and added a little garlic powder. My husband loved it. Thanks!

This recipe was excellent. I used reduced sodium beef broth, used more broth instead of water and about 6oz of white wine I had. I added a little salt as it cooked. I used a little more sugar while cooking the onions. I had provolone cheese and cuban bread on hand and it came out wonderful.

Excellent!! My significant and I loved it. Served with a steak and wedge salad. Only changes I made were that I sautéed the onions for 35 min., in the last 5 minutes of sautéing I added two cloves of chopped garlic and 4 diced mushrooms. I also omitted the water. Did I say this was excellent!

This is a very tasty French Onion soup, and has become one of my winter staples. The first time I made it I didn’t have any white wine, so I substituted apple juice instead; this worked well and I have continued to use the juice instead of wine. I also sauté my onions for much longer, usually close to 30 minutes to really bring out their flavour.

This is a really good recipe, but to make it taste the best, you MUST cook the onions for longer than it calls for. I cooked them for about 30 minutes then added the flour, etc. Instead of 4 onions I used 2 very large sweet onions. I used a dry red wine instead of white and it gave the soup a deeper taste, which I really enjoyed. I also used croutons instead of bread and provolone instead of mozzarella. This is a very good soup, and I'll be making it often.

This was REALLY good soup. I made a few changes to the recipe though. We used organic chicken broth instead of beef broth. It made it a little lighter. We used swiss cheese instead too. With the bread, I grilled it in olive oil and thyme before I put it in the soup. I will definatly make this again, though I will probably cut the amount of pepper in half and add some additional spices.

I thought this was excellent. I am always scared to make soups but this one I will make a lot! Very easy and quick to make. I used 3 onions instead of 4 and didnt add any water, although next time I'll put in half a cup or so. I didnt have any thyme so I just left that out. I cooked the onions for awhile so they were very soft and translucent. I also didnt have a baguette, so I just cut up a piece of whole wheat sandwhich bread and it was awesome! Glad I made the whole recipe even though there is only 2 of us.

My first stab at making French onion soup and my hubby and I enjoyed it immensely. I used shallots, green onions, and white onions. I thought the seasonings were right on!

I made this recipie with some left over prime rib added (about 6 oz) and it turned out great. If you don't have prime rib on hand, try some deli roast beef. I made it for my wife on Valentine's day and paier it with a salad, and it was the perfect mid winter dinner. I also substituted Gryere cheese instead of Mozerella for a bit more bite and a little less "stringyness".

I really love french onion soup and I decided to try this recipe. It turned out very well but I made some substitutions. I didn't add that much water and added more beef broth. I also added Worcester, garlic powder and basil and I think it really added a lot of flavor and everyone loved it.

I did not particularly care for this recipe. I cooked it according to the directions and it came out flavorless and the onions were way undercooked. I Would not recommend this recipe to anyone.

I did caramelize the onions first as I have always done (makes for a better colour and flavour) Otherwise as per recipe, very good. You must use strong flavoured onions to achieve the best taste.

I was so dissapointed in this recipe. I was really looking forward to this but the taste was horrible. It was so bad I threw the whole thing away. I don't know what everybody sees in this one but I sure don't see it. Hope I can find a better recipe.

Excellent recipe. I decreased the wine to about 3 oz and used red wine instead of white. And added a 1/2 tsp or so of worcestershire sauce too. Yum yum! I eat it without the bread and cheese and it is still very filling.
