French Onion Soup is crack

FatHeadsFrenchOnionSoup

I’m addicted to french onion soup. Next to a quality sandwich if you can wow me with french onion soup you’ll have me as a customer for life. I dont know what it is about this specific soup that I crave so much. First off you have to nail presentation. If the cheese isn’t melted over like the above picture I took today at Fat Heads you should just give up. Next up is the cheese itself. I’ve been to places that use sliced swiss and it was disgusting. Me, I’m a provolone, Fontina or Gruyere cheese kinda guy.

Now the bread. Fat Heads used chunks which I wasn’t stellar on the idea but served well. personally I dig country style bread. It does a great job absorbing the flavor of the broth and doesn’t turn into a soggy mess. It retains its consistency.

Have a favorite soup or your own version of French Onion? Let me know in the comments section.

cheers!
