Instructions
Slice onions into rings
Heat up stock pot with the oil.
Saute onions soft and translucent.
Reduce heat setting. Stir in flour to create a roux. Mix in and deglaze with white wine. Increase heat setting.
Pour in broth and season your soup with bay leaves, nutmeg, black pepper, and salt. Cook for about 30 minutes over a medium heat setting.
Cut stale bread into bite sized pieces and place into the prepared onion soup bowls.
When the soup is done cooking, pick out bay leaves and discard.
Pour soup into prepared soup bowls
Top with grated cheese and place the bowls into the oven under the grilling function for a couple of minutes until the cheese has melted on top.
Serve hot.
