FRENCH ONION SOUP (1651)

For a very rainy day, soup seemed like the perfect answer. So, I decided to make this Tasting History recipe, a comforting version of French Onion Soup from 1651. While onion soups have been made since Ancient Greek and Roman times, modern French onion soup, topped with toasted bread and melted cheese, didn't arise until the 20th century. This recipe lies somewhere in the middle, and still comes from France, making it a true French Onion Soup. The recipe was published in Le Cuisinier François by François Pierre de la Varenne in 1651. Instead of the quintessential cheese in a modern French Onion Soup, it uses just milk instead. I chose to make this recipe because I thought it would be interesting to try a precursor to the French Onion Soup we enjoy today. See Max’s video on how to make the dish here or see the ingredients and process at the end of this post, sourced from his website.

My experience making it:

I ended up using 3 medium-sized onions, as I wanted a smaller yield than what Max had, and as a result, I 'two-thirded' the recipe to match, which turned out very accurate still, I think. Otherwise, I followed the ingredients list meticulously - quite easy to do when the ingredient list contains mostly items I usually keep around the house on the regular.

I sliced my onions nice and thin, adding them to a soup pot with the already-melted salted butter. They filled about two-thirds of the pot, just as I planned, but after a little more than an hour of cooking they did caramelize down to a small layer, maybe an inch thick, at the bottom. I added the water and scraped as much of the brown caramelized bits from the bottom of the pan as possible. I probably could have waited until the onions were a little more brown to add in the water, but I was getting a little impatient, as the onions had already cooked for more than an hour (longer than Max's did). I added the salt and pepper (I might have been a little generous with these amounts), then simmered the soup a bit before adding the milk and bringing it back up to a boil. I took the soup off the stove as soon as it came to boil, as Max says that if it boils too long once the milk is in, the soup can separate into layers - no thanks! Luckily, mine cooperated. I baked the baguette slices until they got a good crisp on them, but I didn't bother trying to get them as golden as Max's, because, in my opinion, his looked way too crispy for my liking. I served the French Onion Soup as an appetizer for our dinner of breaded shrimp and carrots with hummus (a bit of an easier meal since the soup took so long to make). I topped the soup with a toasted baguette slice each, with a few on the side for dipping. It looked tasty enough, but very...beige!

My experience tasting it:

I tried just a spoonful of soup first, with some onion in it. While it did taste nice, and definitely of onion, I did find that the milk was very forward in the flavour. This gave it such a sweetness when combined with the onion, which, in a modern French Onion Soup, would have been perfectly balanced by the saltiness of the melted cheese. Unfortunately, the soup was also quite under-seasoned. Both my husband and I had to add quite a bit of salt and pepper to bring the flavour up to our taste preference, despite my generous hand adding both of those ingredients in when making the soup. Perhaps the flavour would have been a little more intense if I let the onions reach a darker shade of caramelization before adding the water, but I'm not too sure. My next bite, I tried some of the floating toasted baguette in the soup. It definitely added more texture, but the centre had gone a little soggy, while the outside was still a bit too crispy. When I dipped the remaining toasted baguettes on the side in, they were also a little too crispy. I would probably prefer just adding some small croutons to get that texture, since they're just easier to eat in a soup. While the soup was decent and we did both happily finish our bowls, I don't think we would make this recipe again. Firstly, it took pretty long for not much flavour-payoff, and secondly, modern French Onion Soup recipes are just so good (especially with the cheese in there!) that I would prefer to make the modern one every time. I guess the French have worked to perfect French Onion Soup for hundreds of years to make the show-stopping one we enjoy today! If you end up making this dish, if you liked it, or if you changed anything from the original recipe, do let me know!

French Onion Soup original recipe (1651)

Sourced from Le Cuisinier François by François Pierre de la Varenne, 1651.

After your onion is cut very thin and sauteed in butter until it’s well browned, cook it in a little water well seasoned with salt and pepper. After it is done, add milk to it and boil it. Baking your crusts dry, serve it promptly.

Modern Recipe

Based on Le Cuisinier François by François Pierre de la Varenne (1651) and Max Miller’s version in his Tasting History video.

Ingredients:

2-4 yellow onions

4 tablespoons (57 g) salted butter

1 ½ cups (350 ml) water

½ teaspoon salt, more to taste

½ teaspoon pepper, more to taste

3 cups (700 ml) whole milk, room temperature

8-12 slices French baguette, preferably stale*

*If the baguette is not already stale, put the slices in the oven at a low temperature for 30 minutes to dry them out.

Method:

Peel the onions and cut them in half from root to stem. Slice thinly. Don’t worry about them being perfect or totally uniform.

Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium-low heat.

Add the onions (they will likely fill the whole pot) and cook, stirring frequently, for 45 minutes to 1 hour, until they’re a dark golden brown.

While the onions are cooking, preheat the oven to 400°F (205°C).

Arrange the baguette slices on a baking sheet and toast them on the top rack of the oven for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until they’re nicely browned.

Add the water to the caramelized onions and use a wooden spoon to scrape the sides and bottom of the saucepan.

Add the salt and pepper and bring to a simmer. Cover the saucepan and simmer for 15 minutes.

Pour in the milk and return to a simmer over medium heat. Remove from the heat immediately once it starts to boil.

Ladle into bowls and serve it forth with toasted baguette on the side.
