Servings: persons

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons butter
8 onions cut in half pole to pole and sliced
8 ounces mushrooms, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced or put through a garlic press
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
3-4 turns of freshly-ground black pepper
1 tablespoon flour
1/2 cup dry sherry
4 cups chicken stock (or low sodium chicken broth)
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme (or a few sprigs of fresh thyme; unfortunately my thyme is buried under about 8 inches of snow.)
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
1 small baguette, cut into 1/2 inch slices
shredded Gruyere cheese

1
Saute onions and mushrooms in butter and olive oil. When they have begun to soften, add garlic, salt and pepper. Cover and cook for about 1/2 hour, scrape up fond, and continue sauteing (adding water if needed) and scraping up fond until onions and mushrooms are caramelized and dark brown in color.
2
Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of flour over onions and mushrooms and stir until smooth.
3
Add 1/2 cup sherry and 4 cups chicken stock/broth. Bring soup to boil, reduce heat, and simmer uncovered for 30 minutes.
4
While soup is simmering, bake baguette slices in a single layer at 400 degrees for 10 minutes, until dry and crisp.
5
Add 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar to soup; stir in. Taste and adjust seasonings.
6
Preheat broiler. Put soup into individual crocks (broiler-safe), top with one or two croutons and grated Gruyere. Broil till cheese is melted and bubbly, about 5 minutes and serve.
