How to Make Bennigan's Onion Soup
- Melt 2 tablespoons of butter in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add 3 pounds of thinly sliced yellow onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until deeply caramelized (about 20-25 minutes).
- Stir in 1/2 cup of all-purpose flour and cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
- Gradually whisk in 6 cups of beef broth, ensuring no lumps form. Add 1 teaspoon of dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
- Bring the soup to a simmer, then reduce heat and cook for 5 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
- Ladle the soup into oven-safe bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of crusty bread and a generous amount of shredded Gruyère cheese (about 1/4 cup per bowl).
- Broil in the oven for 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
