SWISS ONION SOUP

"When diners at Schuler's in Marshall, Michigan, order the restaurant's version of classic French onion soup topped with Swiss cheese, they get it steaming hot in a pewter mug."

2 pounds onions, thinly sliced
2/3 cup butter, divided use
2 tablespoons finely chopped garlic
2 tablespoons dry mustard
2 to 3 teaspoons dried sage, crushed
1/4 cup dry sherry
6 cups chicken broth and/or beef broth
1/3 cup butter
2/3 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup heavy (whipping) cream
Salt and pepper
FOR SERVING:
Croutons
Swiss cheese slices
Grated Parmesan cheese

In a large Dutch oven, cook onions in the 1/3 cup butter till onions turn a dark golden brown.

Add garlic, mustard and sage. Stir in sherry. Add broth.

In a medium saucepan, melt the remaining 1/3 cup butter; stir in flour. Cook and stir the mixture till light brown.

Stir flour mixture into onion mixture. Stir in cream. Bring to boiling. Cook for 1 minute more. Season with salt and pepper.

Serve soup topped with croutons, Swiss cheese and Parmesan cheese.

Makes 8 to 10 servings
