White Onion Soup

If ever there was a soup to turn to for comfort, deliciousness and simplicity of flavour, this is it. I often test the cooking abilities of new young chefs with this dish - there really is nothing to hide behind when faced with a bowl of onions, some butter and some milk...

If you’re unfamiliar with white onions, they are a must-try ingredient. Their skins are completely white, and they’re sweet, compact and less aggressive in flavour than ordinary or Spanish onions.
