God bless moms like that. As hard as they are graceful. They just don’t make them like they used to. The spread looks amazing. Cheers friend!Mum (coming up on 73) still insists on cooking Christmas dinner for children and grandchildren (13 of us).

Dude..... your bread game is awesome
My favorite! I've never attempted to make it myself tho lolFrench onion soup. My big spread plans got cancelled. So this is what I did to entertain myself today
Give it a try! Here is the recipe I followed. Not traditional but simple and tasty.
Thanks for that! I was gonna ask for the recipe but I didn't wanna bug ya...you came through anyway!Give it a try! Here is the recipe I followed. Not traditional but simple and tasty.
Personal notes:
1. The onions cooked down for 2.5 hours. Once a lot of the liquid is gone, stir pretty frequently to keep them from burning
2. I used sweet onions. The flavor was complex but sweet. Maybe use white or yellow onions for a less sweet, more traditional flavor
3. I did not add the sherry or chives
4. Slice your baguette thick. I buttered and toasted both sides of the baguette slices for max crunch and to stand up to the soup liquid better. After toasting I rubbed a clove of raw garlic on them. There is no garlic in this recipe, so if you like garlic, this step took it over the top. The bites with the bread were incredible
5. I used beef bone broth. It was expensive but the broth choice has a huge impact on the end product. If you don’t use a homemade broth, pick a good store bought bone broth
Post up your results!
Of course man. I love the home cook sub community this thread has evolved into. There are some really impressive skills and creativity on display in here.
