Ingredients

  • 4 large onions
  • Papa Vince Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • Ground cumin
  • Thyme
  • Papa Vince Sea Salt
  • Black pepper
  • Cheese
  • Bread
  • Beef or chicken broth

Instructions

  1. Prep the onions: Begin by peeling and slicing your onions thinly. 
  2. Sauté the onions: Heat a generous amount of Papa Vince Extra Virgin Olive Oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally,for about 15-20 minutes.
  3. Add seasoning and broth: Once the onions are softened, sprinkle in ground cumin, thyme, a pinch of Papa Vince Sea Salt, and a dash of black pepper. Stir for another minute to release the flavors of the spices. Then, pour in your beef or chicken broth, ensuring the onions are fully covered. Bring to a simmer, reduce heat, and let it cook for an additional 10-15 minutes to let all the flavors meld together.
  4. Prepare for baking: Preheat your oven to 350°F. Ladle the onion soup into oven-safe bowls. Top each serving with a thick slice of bread, then generously layer your cheese over the bread.
  5. Bake to perfection: Place the bowls on a baking sheet and bake in the oven until the cheese is melted, bubbly, and slightly golden—about 10-12 minutes.
  6. Serve: Carefully remove the bowls from the oven, allow them to cool slightly, and enjoy a cozy, flavorful bowl of onion soup with all the goodness of Papa Vince’s Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
