4 Servings

1000 g yellow onions50 g butter20 g all-purpose flour1.2 l vegetable broth200 ml heavy cream (30% fat)5 g granulated sugar (optional)100 ml dry white wine (optional)1 to taste salt1 to taste freshly ground black pepper

Steps

Caramelize Onions

Peel and thinly slice the yellow onions. In a large pot, melt the butter over medium heat, then add the onions and optional sugar. Sauté, stirring occasionally, for 20-30 minutes until the onions are deeply golden brown and sweet. If using white wine, add it and cook until completely evaporated.

Add Broth

Sprinkle the caramelized onions with flour and stir for 1-2 minutes until lightly toasted. Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth, stirring constantly to prevent lumps. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for another 10-15 minutes until the soup slightly thickens.

Blend and Season

Remove the soup from the heat and use an immersion blender to purée it until completely smooth. Return to the heat, stir in the heavy cream, then season with salt and pepper to taste. Heat through, but do not boil again. Serve immediately, garnished with freshly ground pepper and optionally with croutons.

Extra Tips

► Don't rush the caramelization of the onions; this step gives the soup its deep flavor and color.

► For an even creamier texture, after blending with an immersion blender, pass the soup through a fine-mesh sieve.

► Serve with toasted croutons or grated cheese for an extra delicious touch.
