Cooking Period: Forty minutes
In all, 55 minutes
4 servings total

 Ingredients:

  1. ½ cup unsalted butter
  2. Two teaspoons of olive oil
  3. Four cups of thinly chopped onions
  4. Five mugs of beef broth
  5. Two tsp of sherry, dry
  6. One teaspoon of dried thyme
  7. One dash of pepper and salt, to taste
  8. Four pieces of French bread
  9. Four pieces of provolone cheese
  10. ¼ cup of grated Parmesan cheese
  11. two pieces of chopped Swiss cheese

Instructions For Rich and Simple French Onion Soup:

  • Compile every component.
  • In an 8-quart stock pot set over medium heat, melt butter and olive oil together. When onions are soft and transparent, add them to butter and whisk them constantly. Avoid browning the onions.
  • Add beef broth, sherry, and thyme. Season with salt and pepper. Let simmer for 30 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat up the grill in the oven.
  • Pour soup into serving bowls that are safe to put in the oven, then top each with a slice of bread (you can break the bread into pieces if you’d like). Arrange a slice of provolone, half a slice of chopped Swiss, and a tablespoon of Parmesan cheese on each slice of bread.
  • Arrange the bowls on a baking sheet and bake under broil for two to three minutes, or until the cheese begins to bubble and brown slightly.
  • Enjoy while hot!

Which Onions Work Best in French Onion Soup?
Yellow onions sliced thinly are used to make French onion soup. Red or white onions can also be used to produce great soup; it just depends on your taste preferences and what you have on hand.

French Onion Soup Storage?
After the soup has cooled, transfer it to an airtight container, being careful not to include the croutons since fresh ones taste best. For up to three or four days, keep it refrigerated.

French Onion Soup Reheat Instructions?
On the burner, reheat the French onion soup by bringing it to a boil. If you want to get really fancy, you can top it up with additional cheese and broiled bread, but if you want something quick and simple, you can just use store-bought croutons.

French Onion Soup Freezer Instructions?
French onion soup is simple to freeze without the croutons: Simply pour the chilled soup into a freezer-safe, airtight jar and store in the freezer for up to three months. You can freeze it in serving-sized pieces to save yourself the trouble of having to thaw and refreeze the entire batch.

Just place the frozen French onion soup in the refrigerator and let it thaw over night. Hastily? If you immerse the sealed container in cool water, you can defrost it faster.

Vegetable Beef Barley Soup

Vegetable Beef Barley Soup

Nothing beats a warm, satisfying soup in the chilly winter months. I highly recommend this recipe if you’re seeking to make one. This filling soup, which resembles a stew, is a terrific way to use up whatever vegetables you may have in your refrigerator in addition to filling you up.

Ingredients:

  1.  2 tablespoons butter
  2. Twice as much vegetable oil
  3. 1.5 pounds of 1 inch-long chunks of chuck (or beef stew meat)
  4. Add pepper and salt (to taste)
  5. One big sliced yellow onion
  6. three minced garlic cloves
  7. One 14.5-oz can of chopped tomatoes
  8. TWO tablespoons of tomato paste
  9. Five cups of reduced-sodium beef stock
  10. Two tablespoons of superior roast beef foundation to Bouillon
  11. One cup of dry red wine, Merlot, was used.
  12. 3 medium red potatoes, peeled or unpeeled (wash the skins thoroughly if unpeeled)
  13. 3 stalks of celery
  14. 3 medium carrots, cut in chunks or 1 inch rounds
  15. 1 cup quick cooking barley
  16. 1 cup frozen corn
  17. 1 cup frozen peas
  18. 10 asparagus spears, cut in chunks (optional)
  19. Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish, optional

Directions:

  1. Warm up some oil and butter in a big Dutch oven. Give the meat cubes some salt and pepper, then brown them all over. After removing it from the pan, set the meat aside. Add a bit more oil if necessary and sauté the onion in the same pan until it becomes transparent. Once aromatic, add the garlic and simmer for one minute. Add pepper and salt for seasoning.
  2. By adding the wine, you may deglaze the pan’s bottom and scrape out all the food residue. Add the tomato paste, broth (rather than bouillon), and diced tomatoes. Blend well to blend.
  3. Add the barley, potatoes, celery, carrots, and meat (including any drippings). Once the meat and barley are cooked, bring to a boil, cover, and simmer for 45 to 1 hour. Add salt or pepper as needed after tasting.
  4. Add the optional frozen asparagus, peas and corn. Cook with a cover on for ten more minutes. If you have time, you can refrigerate the soup overnight and reheat it the next day. If not, add parsley as a garnish, serve, and savour!

Ingredients For Tofu Noodle Soup (Vegan Chicken Noodle Soup)

  1. Fourteen ounces of extra-firm or firm tofu in cube form
  2. wo tablespoons of soy sauce
  3. one-half cup of olive oil Use 1 tablespoon tofu and the remaining amount for soup.
  4. One chopped onion
  5. four sliced carrots
  6. two sliced celery ribs
  7. salt
  8. six smashed garlic cloves
  9. ten cups of water
  10. three bouillon cubes
  11. two bay leaves
  12. one tablespoon of dried parsley
  13. one teaspoon of cayenne pepper
  14. eight ounces of noodles
  15. one tablespoon of lemon juice

Instructions:

  1. Cube the tofu into 1-inch pieces. After adding the soy sauce to the tofu, gently toss to distribute it throughout. Give the tofu five minutes to marinade.
  2. Heat one tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet or nonstick pan. Add the tofu cubes after the oil begins to shimmer. Tofu cubes should be cooked and sautéed till browned all over. Take out of the pan and place aside.
  3. Tofu can be air-fried by combining 1 tablespoon of olive oil and soy sauce with it. Shake the basket midway through the 10-minute tofu cooking time at 400 degrees F.
  4. The remaining olive oil should be added to a Dutch oven and heated to medium. Add the celery, carrots, and onion. Sprinkle in some salt. Simmer for 4–5 minutes, or until soft. Once fragrant, add the smashed garlic and simmer for an additional 30 seconds.
  5. Incorporate water, cayenne pepper, dried parsley, bay leaves, black pepper, and bouillon cubes.
  6. After bringing to a boil, lower heat to a simmer. Simmer for 15 minutes with a lid on. Add the tofu and noodles after that. Heat to a boil on a medium-high heat setting. Cook until al dente, about 10 minutes, without a lid. Pour some lemon juice into the soup. Mix thoroughly.
  7. Serve with your preferred herbs or parsley as a garnish.

Notes:

  • For my soup base/broth, I used Not-Chick’n Edward & Sons Bouillon Cubes.
  • For this recipe, we used extra-firm tofu. Tofu that is firmer and has a somewhat softer texture can still be used. You are welcome to substitute plant-based chicken or chickpeas for tofu.
  • Choose your preferred soup noodle!
