INSTRUCTIONS

Makes 6 servings
Richly caramelized onions add color and flavor to a soup when an acidic
liquid, such as wine-but in this case, apple cider-is used to deglaze the
pan after long, slow cooking.
1. In a stock pot over medium heat, saute onion in butter and oil until
onion caramelizes, about 30 minutes. (Be careful not to burn onions. They
should turn a rich brown color.) Sprinkle flour over onions. Cook, stirring
well, for 1 minute more.
2. Stir in cider, lemon juice, stock, salt, and crushed peppercorns,
scraping up the browned bits from the pan. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce
heat, and simmer for 10 minutes.
3. Ladle soup into a tureen or individual bowls. Top with croutons.
Sprinkle grated cheese over top.
