French onion soup is among the classics of French delicacies, most likely one of many first belongings you consider when speaking about French meals. Nevertheless it looks as if as of late persons are taking the idea of “French onion soup” properly outdoors its liquid origins. Dealer Joe’s just lately launched a French Onion Focaccia, which I’m a fairly large fan of (although I want it had extra topping on it, because the bread misplaced its luster the second it began to chill down). Ali Slagle additionally developed a French Onion Grilled Cheese that has been throughout my social feeds, reveling in slowly pulled-apart gooey meals porn extra. And I even discovered a skillet rooster recipe impressed by French Onion Soup.
We’ve acquired our personal dynamite recipe for French Onion Soup from Kate Christensen, if you happen to’re searching for one thing to maintain you heat this winter. Or, if you happen to’re searching for one thing somewhat extra adventurous, you’ll be able to attempt to make velouté d’ortie, or stinging nettle soup.

On an unrelated be aware, with the vacations arising, many individuals will probably be wanting ahead to (or dreading) sharing a couple of glasses of wine with their households and buddies at Thanksgiving and Christmas events. I just lately printed this piece on French ingesting tradition that I hope dispels a couple of myths about how and what the French drink. I bear in mind being informed once I lived in France that the French all have this innate sense of moderation in the case of ingesting, that they by no means drink to get drunk, and so are free to get pleasure from their lunchtime glass of wine with out reproval. Statistically, nonetheless, this isn’t precisely true, because the rising charges of youth hospitalization associated to ingesting turned the impetus for France to boost its ingesting age from 16 to 18 in 2009. That is only a reminder to remain protected on the market, and keep in mind that there are some nice non-alcoholic wine choices on our radar if you happen to ever really feel the necessity for a petite pause.
Issues I discovered on the Web…
