How to Make Sannich In Soup
- Thinly slice onions using a mandoline or food processor.
- Melt 4 tablespoons of butter in a large saucepan over medium heat.
- Add all the sliced onions to the saucepan.
- Increase heat to medium-high; stir occasionally and cook onions for 25 minutes, or until pale golden, significantly reduced in volume, and a deep brown slick forms on the pan bottom.
- Stir in 6 cups beef broth, 1 cup dry red wine, 2 sprigs of thyme, and 1 bay leaf.
- Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20-25 minutes.
- Discard the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
- Stir in 2 tablespoons red wine vinegar and freshly ground black pepper.
- Taste and add salt ONLY if needed.
- Stir in ¼ cup chopped fresh parsley.
- Slice bread on a slight diagonal into ½-inch-thick slices (2 slices per serving).
- Lightly butter one side of each bread slice.
- Layer sliced cheese between two bread slices, buttered sides facing out, to make grilled cheese sandwiches.
- Cut any remaining cheese slices and scraps into long, thin pieces.
- Heat the soup until very hot, but not boiling.
- In a large frying pan or griddle, grill sandwiches over medium-low heat for 10 minutes per side, or until golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Heap the remaining cheese pieces onto the sandwiches while still in the pan.
- Broil for 1-2 minutes, or until the extra cheese is melted.
- Ladle soup into bowls.
- Carefully slide a grilled cheese sandwich into each bowl and serve immediately, sprinkled with additional chopped parsley.
