HOMEMADE FRENCH ONION SOUP

HOMEMADE FRENCH ONION SOUP

I just made Julia Child's, FRENCH ONION SOUP, from her book ''Mastering The Art of French Cooking.''
I was inspired by the movie ''Julie & Julia'' which I just finally watched. Cute movie and Meryl Streep was wonderful as Julia.

I didn't use the Cognac or Brandy, but I did use Chardonnay.
I used Asiago in place of the Swiss cheese....
Oh yes, I always make my own herbed croutons, and I used them instead of slabs of bread as she calls them...:)
I took this photo just before browning in the oven...,:)

This soup takes awhile but it is well worth it....like I'm in Soup Heaven right now...:)and I love a great soup!
