Sorry about the missed post yesterday. I ended up taking a really bad picture, and I was too exhausted to fix it. And a few other reasons why. So, here is the bad picture. I did have the joy of burning a few hundred fire ants that were in my grill for some reason. I took great pleasure in doing that.
Oh, that was the grilled onions. I couln't eat them. But My Beloved and Chef Turbo enjoyed them.
Tonight, I made for the first time "French Onion Soup". I did not have any cognac on hand, so I used Red wine vinegar. Sadly, that kind of runined the soup. I am happy to say that after watching tons of videos on how to cut produce, I almost got even cuts on my onions! I was inspired to learn after watching the first three episodes of Masterchef. I realized I did not know how to really cut things, and if I were put up to the challenge, they would kick me off the show after seeing me just hold the knife... not anymore! YAY for youtube!
Anyways. I think the soup to onion ratio was off. There were to many onions. When I was in France, I could have sworn that there was more broth and that the onions were few and had room to move in the sauce. So either Mr. Bishop loves onions, or I put too many in. Oh well.
I love French Onion soup and yours looks REALLY GOOD! I make it all the time and (obviously) never have cognac so I just leave that part out entirely.
