Preparation

Melt the butter with the oil in a large saucepan.

Add the onions and stir them well covered.

Cook over low heat for 5 = 8 minutes, stirring occasionally until they begin to soften.

Add the thyme.

Reduce the heat to very mild, cover the pan and cook for 20-30 minutes, stirring frequently until the onions are very soft and golden yellow.

Uncover the saucepan, add the heat, add the sugar and cook for 5-10 minutes until the onions begin to brown.

Add the sherry vinegar and raise the heat again.

Continue cooking until the onions darken a little. (This can take up to 20 minutes.)

Meanwhile, boil the chicken broth (or beef).

Add the flour to the onions and stir constantly for 2 minutes.

Add the broth little by little and then the wine and brandy.

Season with salt and pepper.

Boil for 15-20 minutes.

For breads, preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Place sliced bread on a baking sheet and bake for 15-20 minutes until golden brown.

Spread with half the garlic, varnish with the mustard and sprinkle the bread slices with the gruyere cheese.

Put the soup in oven-proof deep bowls and place the loaves on top. Put in the oven with the "broil" very strong until the cheese melts and begins to bubble.

Serve immediately.
