I've had a head cold for a bit more than a week. Since onions are supposed to help fortify your immune system against colds I decided to go with a Fort Knox onion recipe.
6 medium sized red onions in 1/8" slices
3 tbsp unsalted butter or ghee
6-8 cups beef stock
Bouquet garni with two bay leaves, sprig of thyme
2 tbsp truffled balsmic vinegar
1/4 cup Madeira
3 everything bagels
6 slices swiss cheese
6 tbsp parmesan
Salt and pepper
Preheat the oven to 350F. Over medium high heat brown the onions stirring frequently (20 - 30 minutes). Add the beef stock, the bouquet garni and the Madeira. Simmer for about 20 minutes. While the broth is simmering slice the bagels and remove the top and bottom crusts. Toast in the oven for 15 minutes turning over a the midpoint. Increase the oven temperature to 400F. Remove the bouquet garni from the soup. Add the balsamic, salt and pepper. Ladle the soup into oven safe bowls, top with a toasted bagel and cheese. Place in oven until the cheese melts.
