This is the absolute best when Vidalias are in season. For a twist on the taste, try substituting dark beer for the Vermouth/Cognac.

• 4 cups beef broth
• 3 cups sliced onion
• 1/4 c. butter
• 1 tsp. salt
• 1 tbsp. sugar
• 2 tbsp. flour
• 1/4 c. dry Vermouth or Cognac
• 1 baguette French bread, cut in 1-inch thick slices
• several slices of Swiss cheese

Set the crockpot on high and add the broth. While that is warming up, sauté the onions in a large skillet with the butter, sugar and salt. When browned, add the flour, then transfer all to the crockpot and add the Vermouth or

Cognac. Cook on high for 3 hours.

 

Now for the fun part. Ladle the soup into bowls and place a slice of bread in each bowl. Top this with Swiss cheese and melt under a broiler. Voila!
