French Onion Soup

December 14, 2020 By marketeditor

Photo by Pattie Garrett

Recipe by The Kitchn, shared by My Saratoga Kitchen Table
Serves: 8

Ingredients
*Ingredients currently available at the farmers’ market
● 2½ pounds yellow onions*
● 3 Tablespoons unsalted butter
● 2 Tablespoons olive oil
● 1 teaspoon salt
● Freshly ground pepper
● ½ teaspoon sugar
● 8 cups of beef, chicken, or vegetable broth
● 3 Tablespoon flour
● ½ cup white wine*
● 8 baguette slices, toasted*
● 1½ cup to 3 cups of shredded Gruyere cheese (1/4 to ½ cup per serving)

Instructions
1. Cut onion into thin evenly-sized half-moon slices. Should yield about 6 cups of onion slices.
2. Melt butter with oil in a pan over medium-low heat.
3. After the butter foams up and then settles down, add the onions and stir to coat with the butter.
4. Cover the pan and cook for 15 minutes on low heat.
5. Remove the lid. The onions should have wilted down. Stir in salt, a generous amount of pepper, and sugar.
6. Turn the heat up to medium and cook, uncovered and stirring every few minutes, until the onions are deeply browned.
7. As the onions turn a deep walnut color, heat the broth in a separate pan.
8. Add 3 Tablespoons flour to the caramelized onions and cook, stirring for about 1 minute.
9. Add the hot broth to the caramelized onions and bring to a boil. Add wine if using. Lower the heat and partially cover the pan. Cook gently over low heat for at least 1 hour or until the broth is slightly reduced.
10. Heat the oven to 350 degrees. Divide the soup between oven-safe bowls or use a deep casserole dish. Top each with a slice of toasted baguette and sprinkle grated cheese in a thick layer over the bread and up to the edge of the bowl.
11. Place the bowls on a baking sheet or in a casserole dish, if not using oven-proof bowls. Bake until the cheese is thoroughly melted.
12. Turn the oven from bake to broil and broil the soup for 1 to 3 minutes or until the cheese is browned and bubbling. Remove from the oven and let cool for a few minutes before serving.

Notes:
Top with minced shallots, onions, or crispy bacon. Add thyme with wine and sprinkle over the soup before baking.

Market Crush Monday is back! This week we talked t Market Crush Monday is back! This week we talked to Laurie from Kokinda Farm who brings her homemade jams & jellies, vegetables, eggs, bread and a variety of hand-sewn items to the market.

1. How did you get started with your farm?
My parents were dairy farmers and I always had a garden and did a lot of canning. Then I just happened to meet someone who got me into the market and have slowly learned things by trial and error to get to where I am today.

2. Do you have a favorite jam?
Definitely my peach jam that I make with my own peaches! Around 60% of my jams are made with all my own fruit that I grow and the rest I supplement with fresh fruit from local pick yourself farms.

3. Why do you like vending at the farmers market?
I love working for myself and being able to interact directly with customers, it’s very rewarding. It’s also great getting to know other local farmers and be able to share stories, information and goals with each other. I've been a school bus driver for the past 23 years but this May I’ll be retiring and am very excited to go full time for farming!

Are you also a local farmer or producer and are you looking to expand your business in 2021? Our summer season vendor applications are open January 15th-31st! Keep an eye out on our page for how to apply. And make sure to stop by Kokinda Farms every Saturday from 9:30-1:30 in the Wilton Mall food court!
