    We make this every year for Christmas dinner. My husband loves it so much, he'll actually slice the onion for it. We double the recipe and freeze some for later. It's so much work, you might as well enjoy it for more than one evening! Also, we make it the day before we eat it. Having it rest for a day does wonders to the flavor.

    I made this today for lunch and it was wonderful. I was concerned about the bourbon being overpowering, but it was not at all. I ended up toasting french bread and melting the cheesse on top of it and topping the soup....it was a nice addition. I would recommend this dish. I always have loved french onion soup, but it is always too salty, I had homemade chicken stock and didn't add as much salt (hardly any since my stock was a little salty already....turned out great!

    This is the first time I have not been overjoyed with a recipe from Emeril. My husband had two bites and could not eat any more!! He LOVES french onion soup and orders it at everywhere we go, but this was not good!! The broth is not heavy or dark enough. I think the addition of the chicken stock ruins it and also the white pepper overpowers the entire soup. Sorry Emeril, but I can't support this one.

    I make this often. I really like the "kick" the white pepper gives.

    I have a very picky daughter who swore she hated onion soup because it's always too salty. But after I had this for her, she asks for it everytime she comes home to visit. It's easy to make and is never salty.

    This is the best version of French Onion SOup anywhere! I have made this several times. The only thing I change is that I omit the white pepper and hot sauce. For my taste, it's a little too spicy with those ingredients!

    Otherwise, great flavor and easy to make, too!
