  • Directions

    Melt butter with olive oil in a large pot over medium-low heat. Add onions and garlic; season with a pinch of salt and black pepper. Cook onion mixture in hot butter-oil until caramelized, stirring every 10 minutes to keep from browning too quickly, about 1 hour.

    Stir brown sugar and thyme into caramelized onions; allow sugar to melt into onions, about 2 minutes. Pour in wine and bring to a boil while scraping the browned bits of food off of the bottom of the pan with a wooden spoon; continue simmering for 5 more minutes. Pour in beef stock; cook for 10 more minutes. Season soup with salt and pepper.

    Preheat the oven's broiler to high. Place 5 oven-safe crocks onto a baking sheet.

    Ladle soup evenly into the crocks. Top each with a French bread slice; cover with a Swiss cheese slice and sprinkle with Parmagiano-Reggiano cheese.

    Cook soups under the preheated broiler until cheese is melted and browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
