My first trip to France was in the middle of 2000s. I vividly remember my excitement and joy from going to one of the most beautiful countries in the world. The country, that I still consider to be my favorite.

Beautiful Baroque architecture, drenched in history streets of Paris, melodic French language and of course mouthwatering and top notch French cuisine. All of this has left a significant impact on the shaping of my culinary and cultural preferences.

Before we get started, here's what you need to know:

If you watch a recipe video, you'll see that I made Chicken French Onion Soup Recipe. Despite that traditionally, beef broth is used, chicken broth is my personal preference. You can make it with any broth you like.,

In my recipe I used a combo of Gruyere cheese which has a wonderful flavor and Provolone cheese, which melts great.

Best cheese for this soup

• Swiss Cheese + Parmesan Cheese;
• Comté cheese;
• Emmental.

Does French Onion Soup Freeze Well?

Yes, you can definitely freeze French Onion Soup. Arrange prepared soup minus bread and cheese among the freezer friendly zipper bags and lay them flat in a freezer.

When stored properly French Onion Soup will keep for 3 months in a freezer.

When you're ready to eat your soup, thaw it overnight in the refrigerator or place a bag into a simmering water. Once defrosted, bring the soup to a boil again, then ladle into a bowl, top with baguette, cheese and broil until cheese is nice and melty.

Wine Pairing

• Cabernet Sauvignon
• Merlot
