    Do I hear traces of a Liverpudlian accent? I'm not from the UK. However, I find the plethora of accents from different regions very charming.

    Idea: Hey if you wanted the soup to be more of a meal or the main part of the meal can you in a pressure cooker simmer the beef stock with some ox tails bone marrow and stewed beef pieces, roasting them first and lightly flouring and searing stewed beef pieces, while caramelizing the onions. Remove the ox tails and the bones, skim the fat, and scoop the bone marrow Into the stock before adding it to the onions. It just seems the flavors would all come together and you’d get a nice deep rich French onion beef stew soup

    As an apparent outlier in the comment section, I’m going to follow the directions as he said.I won’t add garlic, or different booze. I’ll use flat wide pans to caramelize. There seems to be a trend for people to immediately change things. It really becomes a problem in the workplace.

    The key is in the steam... it brings the heat up into and around the onion that are not touching the pan. This heat helps release the moisture and allow it to evaporate. Now ya know. 😉

    Everyone with the "best", I have tried many many "chef best" French onion soups, including Gratinée, and so far, I can honestly tell you - Swiss cheese is not actually where it's at. It goes "well". but is by far not the best :) Without a channel or other platform, I dare not share my own secret. I sell this stuff locally serving 75+ people a night at $13 a bowl. I need a channel but... I feel like "passion" to share is more a "right" to proclaim ones self worth and ruins the need to go to a real restaurant.

    Adding a little water at the beginning helps to cook the onion so the water content of the onion will be released quicker, and that speeds up the caramization process of the onion, so the ideal sweetness level is achieved quicker.
