I love this recipe, but whenever I make it the clumps don’t dissolve. can it be because I use less oil for the onions?
I would try dissolving the flour, sugar and onion soup mix in some hot water before adding it to the pot and see if that helps with the clumps.
is this recipe written in the wrong order? the 4th should come after the 2nd step
French Onion Soup Does this freeze well?
Thanks!
Cheese no, but the rest totally.
Obsessed with this soup! Make it for every last day of chag for a nice dairy meal!
step four should go before step two … delicious though!
