Hello dear kitchen friends! Today, I will present you with a wonderful vegan onion soup recipe inspired by French cuisine. With the enchanting aroma of caramelized onions and rich vegetable broth, this soup will warm you up and delight your palate. Topped with croutons and vegan cheese, it's a complete flavor feast. Let's head to the kitchen and start preparing this delicious soup!
- 4 pounds (1.8 kg, about 6-8 large) onions (yellow, white, or brown, peeled and thinly sliced)
- 4 tablespoons vegan butter (52 g)
- 4 cloves garlic (minced)
- 3 tablespoons flour (23 g)
- 1/2 cup dry white wine (120 ml)
- 6 cups vegetable broth (1440 ml)
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 bay leaf
- 3 sprigs fresh thyme (or 1 teaspoon dried thyme)
- Sea salt and black pepper (to taste)
- 1/4 cup vegan cheese (20 g, grated per serving)
- 1 baguette (320 g, stale)
- 2 tablespoons olive oil (30 ml)
First, cut off the top and bottom of the onions, then peel the outer skin. Place the onion on one of its flat sides and cut in half.
Place the cut half onion flat side down and slice into thin strips. Repeat this process for all the onions.
In a large pot, melt the vegan butter over low heat. Add the onions and sauté until caramelized, about 60 minutes. Be patient, the flavor is hidden in this step!
Add the garlic to the caramelized onions and sauté for another 2 minutes. Add the flour, stir, and cook for 1 more minute.
Now add the wine. Scrape the delicious brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pot with a wooden spoon.
Add the vegetable broth, soy sauce, bay leaf, and thyme. Bring the soup to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 10 minutes. Remove the bay leaf and thyme sprigs.
Preheat your oven to 200°C. Slice the baguette and toss with olive oil. Bake the croutons in the oven for 6-8 minutes.
Divide the soup into bowls, top with croutons and vegan cheese. Bake under the oven's grill mode for 2 minutes until the cheese melts.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately while the soup is hot and bubbly. Don't forget to add fresh thyme and black pepper on top. Enjoy!
