Soup:
2 tablespoons olive oil or vegan butter
2 large yellow onions, sliced thinly (4 cups)
1 teaspoon sea salt, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup red wine, or 1 cup sherry
1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
6 cups vegetable stock
3 sprigs thyme
2 bay leaves
5 sprigs flat-leaf parsley
1 cup grated vegan mozzarella- or Cheddar-style cheese, or 1/2 cup nutritional yeast, or to taste
1 T. light miso
Croutons:
1/2 baguette (white, wheat, or gluten-free)
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1
Prepare the soup: Place the olive oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the onions, salt, and pepper, and cook for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Add the wine and vinegar and cook for 10 minutes, stirring frequently and adding small amounts of vegetable stock if necessary to prevent sticking.
2
Lower the heat to medium, add the vegetable stock, miso and herbs to the pot, and cook for 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
3
Meanwhile, prepare the croutons: Set the oven to broil and oil a baking sheet. Slice the baguette into 1/2-inch slices and place on the prepared baking sheet. Baste with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil for 5 minutes, or until the bread is crispy.
4
To serve, remove the bay leaves and thyme sprigs. Pour the soup into oven-safe bowls, add a baguette slice, and sprinkle the top with vegan cheese. Place under the broiler until the cheese melts, about 5 minutes. If you do not have oven-safe bowls, simply top with the cheese before serving.
