SC - Onion Soup

[HARTMAN, NOREEN O]

>Noreen, when I make onion soup I first make a hearty beef broth
using both meat and bones so that it will gel when cold....Keep in 
mind that I make this by tongue/taste....I have no real recipe... I
learned from a chef at one of my favorite restaurants  <

Here I am chained to my desk having visions of onion soup
floating in the brain....

>  Beef stock Meat, bones, chopped carrots, onions, 1 clove 
of garlic, parsley and 1 stalk celery slight amount of pepper 
and salt...water to cover and simmer for several
hours remove bones and strain stock  <

Try adding some parsnip and/or turnip to your stock sometime.
Actually, I'll put most anything I have in the fridge into my 
stock pot, but I do draw the line at lettuce.  Also, if you use
flour sacking to strain your stock, it'll remove a lot of the 
grease.

I have some stock in my freezer, I'll give the onion soup
a run tonight.
