How to Make Andreas Viestad's Norwegian Red Onion Soup With Port And Jarlsbe

  1. Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large, wide pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
  2. Add 4 large thinly sliced yellow onions, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, and 2 bay leaves. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are softened and caramelized.
  3. Pour in 1/2 cup of ruby port wine and cook for 2 minutes, allowing the alcohol to evaporate slightly.
  4. Remove the bay leaves.
  5. Preheat your broiler to high.
  6. Add 4 cups of chicken stock to the pot and bring to a gentle boil.
  7. Ladle the soup into individual oven-safe bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of toasted crusty bread.
  8. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of grated Jarlsberg cheese over each bowl of soup.
  9. Place the bowls under the preheated broiler for 3-5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and golden brown. Watch closely to prevent burning.
