It’s one of my favorite soups of all time.
I love finding the recipe notes she wrote in the margins in her signature loopy script.

What Does French Onion Soup Taste Like?
French onion soupis the perfect balance of salty beef broth and sweet caramelized onions.
The toasted bread and cheese adds texture and richness.
The flavor of wine and cognac helps cut through the heaviness of the topping.
During the winter months, I find myself craving the comforting savory flavor of French onion soup.
Our recipe tasters were divided on the flavor of the cognac.
Some found it a bit too strong, while others thought it was just the right amount.
If you’re hesitant about the boozy flavor, it’s possible for you to always add less.
The soup will still be delicious without it.
