    I just made this recipe today! My boyfriend was craving some french onion soup and I made it my challenge to make it for the first time and it turned out great! I changed the port wine for Merlot like some of the reviewers suggested, since I'm not a Port Wine fan. i also added Fontina Cheese on top of the bread. Is the best French Onion Soup I've had ever. Thank you for this recipe. I'll be definitely making from now on!

    This has been my go-to recipe for French Onion Soup for the past 2 years. I love you Ina (your FOS = so many diff kinds of alcohol = expensive and Alton (your FOS = too many ingredients, period, but Robin comes through with flying colors! I made the soup exactly as Robin wrote it.

    I'm not a big fan of Robin Miller but, I love French onion soup and this was very, very good. Very easy but don't expect the onions to caramelize properly in such a short amount of time, it takes MUCH longer and it's worth it. The onions I used were definitely LARGE and I used one extra as someone suggested because we like our soup oniony. I simmered the soup for quite a while and added more beef stock as needed. I also added a bit more sugar to taste as the soup finished. Used the port but next time I may try sherry. I recommend this recipe highly. A great onion soup!

    I made this soup before and so when we at the grocery store and could not find La Madeleine's tomato soup, I mentioned this soup again. My husband has been begging for it since I mentioned it. It is a wonderful soup. We used Merlot instead of Port, by the way.

    I followed the recipe to a T and it came out absolutely marvelous! I have tried a few other Onion Soup recipes and all came out tasting just slightly off. This has everything I want in this soup, perfect blend of onions and soft silky texture. I will be making this over and over again.

    This is the best onion soup I've ever had.. Better than the local 4 star restaurant in our town! My 1 year old and 7 year old even loved it.

    No leftovers here! Wonderful and so easy to make. I make it often and if I don't have the proper bread, I just toast slices of whole wheat bread and it works fine.
    I really appreciate that Robin doesn't oversalt her food.
    Thanks Robin!
