French Onion Cheese Fondue Recipes

Steps:

• In a pan over medium-low heat, heat the grapeseed oil. Add the onions and garlic and caramelize until golden brown, approximately 10 minutes. Deglaze with the beer and let it cook out for 3 to 4 minutes. Add the beef stock, thyme and bay leaf, then bring to a boil. Let simmer for 10 more minutes. Add the butter and slowly incorporate it into the broth so it thickens the broth lightly, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
• Preheat the broiler.
• Fill a small ovensafe bowl with the onion mixture and cover with the Cheddar and Swiss. Melt the top under the broiler until golden, 1 to 2 minutes (or with a kitchen blowtorch). Serve with the toasted baguette.

Steps:

• In a large pot, melt the butter over low heat. Add the onions and cook over low heat, stirring frequently, until they are deeply browned, about 2 hours.
• Using a wooden spoon, stir in the dry sherry, sherry vinegar, Worcestershire, thyme and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook over low heat until the liquid is reduced slightly, about 2 minutes. Add the chicken broth and reduce slightly, about 5 minutes.
• Preheat the broiler. Divide the caramelized onions between two shallow, heatproof bowls or serving dishes (such as gratin dishes). Cover with the Gruyère, dividing it equally between the dishes. Broil until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Garnish with the parsley. Cool slightly; serve with the baguette slices for dipping.

Steps:

• In large saucepan, combine soup and dip.
• Add cheese, stirring over medium heat until cheese melts.
• Keep warm.
• Serve with cubes of French bread or asssorted veggies.
