Vegetarian French Onion Soup For Chilly Spring Nights | Recipe | Food52

On chilly spring nights warm yourself up with Rebecca Firkser’s vegetarian French onion soup made with deeply browned onions. When seasoned well and mixed with water, they create their own deeply flavorful, totally vegan stock. In a wildly nontraditional gesture, she stirs in fresh asparagus as well as crispy croutons topped with sharp cheddar cheese. GET THE RECIPE ►► https://f52.co/3Du3m6X
