I’m back! After moving not once, but twice in the past year, I am happy to say we are home sweet home in Michigan. We are not completely settled yet, but we are getting there.
While organizing my cookbooks and going through some new acquisitions, I came across a swiss cheese and onion soup. Since I love french onion soup, there was really nothing to doubt in the ingredient list. I’m currently on my second batch. If your weather is anything like it is here (snowing…cold…), a bowl of warm, rich, smooth soup is the perfect thing.
I’ve also decided in terms of savory recipes, there is nothing better than the scent of onions sauteing in butter. It fills the entire house with an aroma letting you know something good is coming. I was shocked at just how good that something was.
The cheese melts velvety smooth and weaves in with the onions perfectly. The mix of sherry, tamari and worcestershire sauce brings it all together.

Meanwhile, in a separate saucepan melt remaining 3 tablespoons of butter. Add in the flour and cook, whisking over low heat for one minute. Reduce heat and add milk. Cook, whisking until thick and rich-looking, five to eight minutes. Add sherry and cheeses and stir to combine until smooth.
