• French Onion Soup Gratinée

    Classic French Onion Soup with Caramelized Onions and Melted Gruyère

    Ingredients:

    6 large yellow onions, thinly sliced

    4 tablespoons unsalted butter

    2 tablespoons olive oil

    1 teaspoon sugar

    4 cloves garlic, minced

    8 cups beef broth (or vegetable broth for vegetarian option)

    1 cup dry white wine (optional)

    2 bay leaves

    1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or ½ teaspoon dried thyme)

    Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

    1 baguette, sliced

    2 cups grated Gruyère cheese

    Directions:

    In a large heavy-bottomed pot, melt butter with olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced onions and sugar. Cook, stirring frequently, for about 40-45 minutes until onions are deep golden brown and caramelized.

    Add garlic and cook for another minute until fragrant.

    Pour in white wine to deglaze the pot, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom. Let it simmer until wine reduces by half.

    Add beef broth, bay leaves, and thyme. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove bay leaves.

    Preheat oven broiler. Ladle soup into oven-safe bowls. Place baguette slices on top, then generously cover with grated Gruyère.

    Place bowls on a baking sheet and broil until cheese is bubbly and golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Watch carefully to avoid burning.

    Serve hot and enjoy the comforting layers of rich, savory soup with cheesy crust.

  • Beef Bourguignon

    Slow-Braised Classic Beef Bourguignon in Red Wine

    Ingredients:

    2.5 pounds beef chuck, cut into 2-inch cubes

    Salt and freshly ground black pepper

    2 tablespoons olive oil

    6 slices thick-cut bacon, chopped

    1 large yellow onion, chopped

    2 carrots, sliced into rounds

    4 garlic cloves, minced

    2 tablespoons tomato paste

    2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

    3 cups dry red wine (like Burgundy or Pinot Noir)

    2 cups beef broth

    1 bay leaf

    1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves (or 1/2 tsp dried)

    1 pound cremini or white mushrooms, halved

    1 tablespoon butter

    Fresh parsley, chopped for garnish

    Directions:

    Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).

    Season the beef cubes generously with salt and pepper. In a large Dutch oven, heat olive oil over medium-high heat and sear the beef in batches until browned on all sides. Remove and set aside.

    In the same pot, cook the bacon until crispy. Add the onion and carrots, cooking until softened, about 5-6 minutes.

    Stir in garlic and tomato paste, cooking for 1 minute. Sprinkle flour over the mixture, stir well, and cook another minute to thicken.

    Deglaze the pot with the red wine, scraping up the brown bits. Add beef broth, bay leaf, thyme, and return the beef to the pot.

    Bring to a simmer, cover with a lid, and transfer to the oven. Braise for 2.5 to 3 hours, until beef is fork tender.

    About 15 minutes before serving, sauté the mushrooms in butter until browned and tender. Stir them into the stew.

    Discard the bay leaf and adjust seasoning as needed. Garnish with fresh parsley and serve hot.
