Crockpot Onion and Flanken Soup

5.0 (9 reviews)

Who doesn’t love a big bowl of onion soup? However, making it can be time-consuming, as you have to sauté the onions for a long time while stirring them. This recipe allows you to skip the sautéing, as your crock pot does all the work for you.

Easy Gluten Free Meat Freezer-Friendly

Contains: Soy

Directions

Prepare the Soup

  1. Combine onions, salt, pepper, and oil in a crockpot; stir to combine.

  2. Add flanken to the crockpot; cover with onion mixture. Cover; cook on high for four to five hours, until onions are golden brown.

  3. Add broth, wine, and miso paste; stir to combine. Cook on high for an additional hour.

Tips:

Miso paste is a paste made from fermented bean curd. Used primarily in Japanese cooking, it adds umami, depth of flavor, to the dishes. Miso paste is available in a variety of colors; the darker the color, the stronger the flavor. I use them interchangeably.

I dont have miso paste on hand. I do have 2 very old packets of miso soup. What can I use to substitute the paste?

You can add a little soy sauce to help with that umami flavor but I would highly recommend using miso.

Hi! Yes, you could make this for Shabbos day. Put it up right before Shabbos and add an extra cup of water :)
You could use boneless flanken.

Made this for Friday night dinner, it was Excellent! I added some red pepper flakes at the end. Next time I think I will add Swiss chard….

Could you put in on a Friday and eat shabbos morning? Would that be too much time in the pot?

I was just wondering the same thing. Can I prepare the crock pot before Shabbos and have the soup for lunch?
