Directions: |
Directions:1. Place stock pot over moderate heat and melt butter with the olive oil. Add the sliced onions and cook slowly until tender and just begin to color. This will take about 15 minutes. Stir on and off. 2. Add the salt and sugar and raise the heat to moderately high. Let the onions brown, stirring frequently, until they are a dark walnut color. This will take about 25-30 minutes. 3. Sprinkle the flour over the onions and stir. Remove from heat. Add the stock, cognac and vermouth. Cover loosely and simmer very slowly for about 1 1/2 hours, add a little water if the liquid reduces too much. Correct the seasonings (salt and pepper) as needed. 4. Top with fresh bread and Swiss or Guerye cheese and broil until just brown in individual serving bowls. |
