For a long time I would remember the French onion soup, but never cooked it or ate it so far, until yesterday. Gorgeous. And very filling. The caramelizing of the onions that took 55 minutes, was magical on its own. I might have added a tad more salt than desired, but it was still a treat. I was blown away by the richness of taste. I did use lard instead of butter in phase 2, as I avoid dairy, but I came to like lard, so it was excellent. I used chicken stock. Gluten free toast and vegan cheese. I might have waited a bit longer for the cheese to brown, but I had an online lesson, and still was fine.

Going against the April's fool joke the trend, here is my non-replenish plate salad

Potato pie, aubergine, corn on the cob and some protein via Fry's nuggets

Wings, noodles, and broccoli.

Our dinner today was cold smoked salmon with a watercress, fennel, apple, radish and avocado salad and roast potatoes.

I also made Nigella Lawson's marzipan cake with the addition of some lemon

That’s probably my favorite soup, and yours looks delicious - those onions are the perfect color!

Novotel at Bangkok airport, a level better than most airport hotels.
Mixed Maki and a teryaki beef bento. It was massive, I have never been beaten by sushi before. Sadly our next proper meal will be at home

Recently retired and enjoying time to cook a decent breakfast instead of something quick. This morning I made French toast with whipped cream I made last night. Enjoying my daily morning Diet Coke. Tonight grilled pork tenderloin and potato stacks

View attachment 111815Lunch at 5 Guys today was a bacon cheeseburger with mayonnaise, mustard, ketchup, pickles, grilled onion, and lettuce. It was yummy!

I went recently. It is pricey. But nobody in town makes a better burger. Except me.

 

[pocofan]

Nope, homemade.

Love French onion soup. In fact, I made beef stock and froze it a couple weeks ago so I can make some soon. Didn't make it then because grocery didn't have gruyere cheese, but got some the other day, so soon.
