Instructions

  1. Place a large stock pot over medium heat. Add onions, butter, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, garlic, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Cook until onions begin to brown and caramelize, stirring occasionally (about 30 minutes for me, slow is good here).
  2. Stir in the flour and let cook for 2-3 more minutes.
  3. Add the broth and thyme. Cook on low for at least 20 minutes (I let simmer for 45 minutes, the longer the better)
  4. Place in individual bowls, and slice a small piece of bread and place on top of the soup. Cover with one slice of cheese and broil for 3 minutes or until browned and bubbly.
