French Onion Soup

I've heard a rumor that our tastes buds die as we get older and that's why we're able to "like" more things... haha. True? I don't know but I do think perhaps we just get a little braver and try new things. This next soup is definitely one I did not start liking until just about a year ago. I took a European cooking class and this was on the menu one night. I remember thinking, I'll try a spoonful (because that's what I expect of my own daughter when I make new stuff). I ended up not only eating that entire bowl but going back for 2nds! Ever since then we have enjoyed this dish! 

I literally have tried at least 10 different versions so far but this one is really simple and delicious. I may post some other versions some day but for now here's my own version of Gluten Free French Onion Soup. Enjoy! 

PS- this version is made with my handy dandy pressure cooker but if you don't have one you can follow the directions BELOW the recipe for a regular version.

Ingredients: 

• 5 cups diced onions
• 1 stick butter (1/2 cup) 
  
• 2 Tbsp gluten free Worcestershire sauce
• 1 & 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/8 tsp pepper
• 3 Tbsp gluten free beef broth base
• 6 cups water

Directions: 

1. Place the onions, butter, Worcestershire, salt, and pepper into the pressure cooker. Seal and cook for 25 minutes. Quick pressure release and add the beef broth base and water. Boil for about 15 minutes more and serve. 

We serve this over my Soft Gluten Free Rolls, sliced and toasted. If you're not dairy free this is really yummy with cheese too.

Don't have a pressure cooker?

You can still make this yummy soup. Simply cook your onions and butter for a LONG time on the stove.  You can cover them to speed up the process but watch them carefully so they don't burn. They need to be soft and transparent by the time you're done. Then add all the other ingredients and simmer for about 15 minutes.
