Recipe ingredients
- 4 Tbsp. (60 mL) butter
- 6 cups (1.5 L) diced onion
- 4 cups (1 L) beef stock
- Freshly grated nutmeg, to taste
- 1 bottle dark beer
- 1/2 lb (225 g) Canadian Aged Cheddar, crumbled
- Salt and pepper, to taste
Preparation
In a large saucepan over low heat, melt butter. Add onions and cook, covered, for 15 minutes. Uncover and cook for 30 to 40 minutes more until onions are dark golden in colour but not burned. Add stock and nutmeg. Cover and bring to a boil; reduce heat and simmer for 15 minutes.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, bring beer to a boil and reduce by half. Remove from heat, add cheese by handfuls, stirring until melted.
Put cheese mixture in blender or food processor; add 1 cup (250 mL) onion soup, blend until smooth. Set aside. Remove onion soup from heat and strain, reserving liquid and onions separately.
Place onions in blender or food processor and purée until smooth. Return purée to large saucepan and stir in reserved liquid and cheese mixture. Salt and pepper then serve very hot.
