    Omg. I made this tonight. Hubbs was not an onion fan at all, but this made him change his mind. Mine too. Thank you.
  • @kaitlinloyer350
    Love to see your son helping! I have 2 boys and I’m pregnant with my third. They love helping in the kitchen. Definitely plan on raising men who can cook.
  • To avoid onion tears, I try not to let myself get too attached before chopping them. 😭
  • @kristof64200
    I am a French chef, I validate your recipe! Well done!
  • @sandytruong1637
    Omg, this is the best french onion soup recipe! I've made it tonight and my family loved it. Thank you Natasha!
  • @cjpreach
    "Just when you think you've added enough, add more." What a great approach to cheese! Love it!
  • To avoid onion tears, do not remove the root of the onions when preparing them. It's a nice tip I got from Gordon Ramsay master class☺️👍👍
  • French Onion is actually one of the easiest soups to make at home, and I wish more people knew that! I like it with the cheese browned and crunchy (almost burned!) on top, but always make extra cheese-toasts to serve alongside for dipping or just snacking. Can't go wrong with a good soup on a cold day! Thanks for this one!
  • Natasha's recipes are simple and AMAZING! YOU are the best chef I have ever followed and I remain a fan for life! Any time I need to fix something different, I ALWAYS look you up! Thank you for teaching me how to be a "cut above" in my meal preparations! Your recipes never disappoint ❤️

    Who else would love to meet Natasha for real(including me)?☺️❤️ ⬇️
  • @tonilyng4851
    Here in France we also use Comté and Meule Fruité cheeses as well as Gruyere. Thanks for the tip on toasting the croutons in the oven. That works really well. Merci à vous.
  • I made this yesterday and my wife LOVED IT !!!...the cheese was gooey and awesome. Thanks for the great recipe !
  • @highbimmers1090
    I play sad violin music on my phone while chopping onions. It does not help with the tears but I find humor in it.
  • @slymultihvq7954
    TIP: PLACE SOME PEELED ONIONS IN SOME COLD WATER FOR ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES TO AVOID TEARS 100% WORKS
  • "Just when you think you've added enough, add more." What a great approach to cheese! You gonna love it!
  • @MrBradUtter
    I made this and it was amazing. The family loved it. Thanks.
  • @JosephineK0118
    I made this for my Mom and Dad tonight! Prepared last night and heated tonight, onions took very long to caramelize in my pot but so worth it! Big hit for the dinner, both of my parents loved the soup! Thank you ❤
  • @jjhanleyiii
    Make sure you tell your son how lucky he is to have a mom like you. I learned to cook well as a young boy and it has surely helped me with the ladies!!!
  • @phammond8155
    This was wonderful and simple. Thank you for bringing such "spunk" to cooking, you've made me a fan!
