This version of a very popular soup is altered slightly-the fat content is much lower, yet the authentic taste is all here!
1 pound yellow onions, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 teaspoon brown sugar substitute
Fresh ground pepper
1/2 teaspoon (dash) salt
1 tablespoon unbleached flour
1 quart low-sodium beef broth
1/3 cup vermouth
4 slices French bread, toasted (about 3/4-inch slices)
1 cup shredded reduced-fat Swiss cheese
1. In a large saucepot, saute the onion in the oil for 15 minutes. Add the sugar, pepper, and salt. Simmer uncovered for 35 minutes, stirring occasionally, adding a little water if necessary. The onions will get very brown.
2. Add the flour and cook an additional 1 minute. Gradually add the beef broth and vermouth; cook over medium heat, stirring constantly until thickened and bubbly. Reduce the heat and simmer for 20 minutes.
3. Ladle the soup into 4 individual oven-safe soup bowls. Top each bowl with a slice of bread and some cheese. Place under the broiler for 2 to 3 minutes. Carefully remove from the oven and serve.
