- A classic french onion soup recipe absolutely must have caramelized onions. But Finding one that gives you the how and why, is few and far to come. We're talkin proper homemade french onion soup with all of it's caramelized onion goodness and lots of good melted cheese on top. Can't go wrong there.

Hey man. My girl is going to have a 16 hour day today, and this soup and bread is going to be waiting for her when she gets home in 30. It's been a while since the house has smelled this good, and this is going to blow her away :). Thanks for doing what you do
Love to see comments like this. Hope she loved it
Love to see comments like this. Hope she loved it.
@@JoshuaWeissman Turns out she's a picky eater 🤣. Apparently I needed more beef broth. I honestly thought it was incredible, and will absolutely be making it again for myself.
@@iAMtheUGLYstick Did you dump her brother?
@@adairbernal5502 It was a mutual split :P
"no sir its 9 am"
died laughing, sipping one for you (9pm here)
I wish these outtakes were scripted but this is just me being me...unfortunately.
*Meanwhile in Australia*
I saw this at 9 pm wtf
That's happened to me quite a few times. I'm more an herbal man though. :P
I’m not liking the comment because the current number of likes is 666, but I appreciate this.
Why choose between Sugar Daddy and French Onion Soup when you could just date Joshua and have both?
@@Neoprototype Speak for yourself, I'm a damn catch

This guy gets it!
Throughout my pregnancy I'd had cravings, but French Onion soup was one of the ones I'd craved constantly. It got to the point where no one wanted to go to our local pub (best French Onion soup) with me because I went so often. I'm 2 months post partum and STILL craving that soup. We tried this recipe last night & I'm HOOKED! I'm about to go to the store to get more ingredients for our second batch as the first is almost gone! Thanks for helping me (literally) feed my addiction!
Thanks for sharing this story 👍🏼
I found this video because the pregnancy cravings are intense today 🤣
Well hopefully you get help.
Maybe you need the collagen from the beef stock.
😊😊
Wife and I made this for dinner last night - 31st anniversary, after making your eggs benedict for breakfast. Outstanding meals, thanks for the great video!
I heard "strong, rich, beefy" and was gonna make a joke about those being good traits in a man, yet you've beaten me to it yourself
Koz “beat meat to it”
Food is money!
The algorithm introduced me to Josh not long ago and he is quickly becoming my new YT crush.
"i don't know about you, but I prefer the soup"
I mean one of them is giving me money
Don't be doing my man dirty like that.
Acquire sugar daddy, make soup for him. Win-win.
I want both. Alternatively, who do you think is paying for my groceries?
I'll take both
with which you can buy ingredients for french onion soup. win win!
Onion soup in France is a tradition during wedding.
At the end of the feast, on the morning, when every one is drunk and tired, those who are there yet after a sleepless night can enjoy an onion soup.
That's beautiful, I think I'll be doing that on my wedding in the future :D Greetings from Germany x
So is it like a hangover cure for the wedding guests?
@No Name Lmao no getting drunk at a wedding and staying up until morning is not having a problem with alcohol... are you 12? Or a religious fanatic?
@No Name You've never been at a truly amazing party/celebration then 🤷 Sometimes when you're surrounded by awesome people having a good time you just don't wanna stop and that's okay. Doesn't mean that you're drinking the whole night or that you're a wreck in the morning. You will sing your last song together watching the sunrise and it'll be magical
@@StrawberryLegacy sounds like you have to drink yourself dead just to have any fun. See you in rehab
Thank you for being one of the few videos I’ve seen that actually caramelizes the onions properly. Also the pole to pole cutting of the onion is rarely mentioned and it is so important otherwise you get mush!
Ahem bing with babish ahem
I doubt you’ll see this but you’ve singlehandedly made me enjoy cooking. Every one of these recipes that I’ve tried has been a vast improvement over the ones I’d previously tried and this was no exception. Best soup I’ve ever had

George Chartier hahahah
I love Adam's videos too! He is heavy handed on the wine, huh? I LOVE IT!
*Adam ragusea has entered the chat*
I had to comment to say adam finally got a wine sponsor
Hahahha
I wonder if Joshua has ever realized how much his videos helped people get laid 😂 Amazing content as always, my dude. Keep it up! We're with you every step of the way ~
NoWrongInChickn nah, this recipe is a love letter for someone special. I never would spend good 3 hours of my life for a quick hookup🙃
Blood_Hunter oof, that’s cruel
Well I did, I hope joshua see this.
I don't cook for women for at least the first 3 months.
Bahahaha! Best comment!
anyone else notice the way his whole tone, attitude & overall vibe changed when he started talking about his mom ? so wholesome 🥺
So Joshua. I just found your channel recently and I have to say that I love your energy and the things you find important to share with others. I’ve been a professional cook for over 12 years now and I really appreciate what your doing with the channel. Stay positive and keep sharing your knowledge. Thanks for what you do for the field. - Wesley
I’ve made this 3 times already this month and it’s gone by the end of the night! This is by far the best and only French onion soup I will ever make. 🥺🤩
French Onion Soup
1/4 cup butter
4 sweet onions, sliced
2 cloves garlic, crushed
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
1/2 cup red wine
1/2 tablespoon sherry
1 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 quarts beef broth
1 French baguette, cut into 1/2-inch thick slices
olive oil, or as needed
6 slices Swiss cheese
6 slices provolone cheese
Melt butter in a large soup pot over medium heat. Cook and stir onions, garlic, salt, black pepper, and thyme until onions are soft and caramelized (brown), about 50 minutes. Pour in red wine and sherry; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer until you can no longer smell alcohol cooking off, about 15 more minutes.
Sprinkle onion mixture with flour and stir until coated; cook for 10 minutes. Pour in broth, stir to blend in flour, and simmer until slightly thickened, about 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) while soup is simmering. Arrange bread slices on a baking sheet and drizzle with olive oil.
Toast the baguette slices in the preheated oven until golden brown, 12 to 14 minutes, turning the bread over halfway through cooking. Remove toast and set aside.
Set an oven rack about 8 inches from the heat source and turn on the oven's broiler.
Ladle soup into 6 oven-proof crocks, filling them about 3/4 full. Place 1 or 2 bread slices into the bowls and top each with a slice of Swiss cheese and a slice of provolone. Carefully place filled crocks onto a sturdy baking sheet.
Broil soup until the cheese is browned and bubbling, 3 to 4 minutes.
How about getting a sugar daddy that can make you French onion soup?
Syed Muhammad Ashraf Find 👏 me 👏 a 👏 man 👏 like 👏 that
You mean josh himself?
@@akaherb8815 ^
I'm gonna make this soup to find a sugar daddy
I genuinely love that you couldn't keep it together when transitioning to the B-Roll.
1:39 5-6 large vidalia onions
2:05 3 tbsp butter and olive oil
3:15 bourbon bb
3:30 beef stock
You forgot the ~wine~
and salt and the herbs
Vidalia will be sweeter than yellow onions, so keep that in mind
@@Ravioliythe adds dry sherry which you can use instead of wine
@@TokyoBlue587he actually used bourbon first, then a dry white wine (like a Pinot griot) he did a small amount of sherry at the very end before adding butter.
I love that every recipe I search in TH-cam I see Josh as the first option! Simply the best 🙌🙌🙌
First of all, first time a find an onion soup recipe seducing enough to try it.
Second of all, man you shouldn’t worry so much about the sponsors stuff, your content is the best, more complete, faithful to the original recipe and verstatile i’ve seen. I think everyone is going to be more than Glad to listen to you through the sponsors part in exchange for the kind of content you put out. If you earn money and sustain the bussiness we get the chance to keep watching your recipes.
The best of lucks
"No sir, it's 9am" lmfao
LOVE ALL THE VIDEOS AT THE MOMENT, AS A APPRENTICE CHEF I AM PICKING UP TIPS FROM YOU THAT ARE JUST SO VALUABLE.
LEARNING LOTS FROM MANY PEOPLE BUT YOU ARE MY FAVOURITE FOOD TH-camR.
👍👍👌
Sometimes I miss this Josh, current Josh is still good but I would say this era of Josh was best. Little to no BS, banging recipe with tips, and very little meme/tiktok influences.
Yeah, but I get it. It's all about the Benjamin's $$$ he gotta make that bank. Especially when he's getting married.
This is the best French onion soup I’ve made and I’ve finally realized I never commented to say thank you! It tastes absolutely amazing, even without the bourbon. I think I’ve made this soup 5 or 6 times now and it always tastes great.
"Dip, slurp, and enjoy" is they best way you've ever introduced b roll lol
He wanted to say “deez nuts” so bad but he held it together and said b roll
Nah he says b roll every time it's like his catchphrase
Haha
Understandably
I just made this for my boyfriend who is a hobby cook and i was really scared about what he would say but he loves it :) i really can't cook but you helped me do something i thought i never could thank you!
That looked so good that I added it to a list of things I want to cook. You're leveling up my cooking skills, and the enjoyment of my food, which is a fundamental joy in life itself.
So, thank you. You're literally improving peoples lives. Some day, I'm going to cook that dish and share it with a friend.
You know Josh, as a child I used to be very fond of soups and even now if I get the chance I drink lots of lamb stock. Your recipes are the best.
Finally recipe I was looking for. Only think I mix yellow Visalia and white onions equal 2 each
I like how you're growing my man, keep it up my man you gonna make it big soon!!
I would love to see you and babish get together !

Make this for someone you love. My fiancé and I have had some rough times recently, we have 3 kids and have been together for almost 10 years so naturally we argue and are stressed out. I made this for dinner last night, and we shared a bowl together while our kids slept and it was truly special. It was restaurant quality and brought us back to each other even if just for a moment. Thank you for that Josh. I didn’t have Bourbon or Sherry so I subbed extra white wine hope PAPA approves!
i made this for my family for dinner tonight and it was sooooo goooddddd. i skipped the sherry and used mozzarella cheese instead. definitely making this again- thank you for the recipe!
Me actually wanting to make French Onion Soup for my grandma
Joshua: Make the onions your lover
me: josh....im interested
I made a vegan version of this and it turned out AMAZING!!!! Added a couple tablespoons of vegan Worcestershire sauce and omg I’m in heaven. Used Earth Balance stick butter, 3 vegan beef Bouillon cubes and topped it with the Follow your Heart Smoked Gouda and Provolone, it was perfect and totally hit the spot! “Winter” just hit Austin and this is going to keep me cozy all week!!! Thank you!

I don't remember using so much alcohol last time I made this but I DO remember starting with 8 pounds of onion and that it took hours! And it was so DELISH! Good on ya Joshua thank you for such good recipes and continually promoting real cooking. You've inspired me to dig deeper and make my own stocks and broths! Thanks Bruh! Much love.
I must have missed the “easy” part can you please explain?
1- burn onions in a pot
2- add store bought stock
3- serve with grilled cheese on top
It's not hard, just time consuming
@@longps9528 *like most cooking recipes*
I'm with you. What is easy about this recipe?
@@DarwinsBeerReviews the easy part is that all u need to do is throw some onions w some butter in a pot, and stock, season, add bread, cheese, and broil. if u cant do this idk what youve been cooking
We appreciate you too bro! I have never really felt confidence to cook my own food but your videos have helped me realize it isn't as intimidating as I thought and now I'm saving so much money and eating better then I ever have. Get those sponserships dude! Thanks for being awesome, witty, and making cooking good food look easy.
Thank you for the correct pronunciation of Gouda as “howda”. That’s how it’s pronounced in the Netherlands.
Ik weet dat deze reactie 9 maanden oud is maar even serieus de “h” is toch geen “g” in het Nederlands? Dat zegt toch geen een Nederlander?
@@tijn3078 nee klopt hij kwam wel in de buurt met z’n uitspraak maar een echte Nederlander spreekt toch echt wel een goeie G uit bij Gouda
Josh: I'm making French onion soup
Celebrity French chef: MERDE!!!
That's a really good one mate

"You know what else you can do, slurp, and enjoy? B-b-he-roll."
B-he-b-roll
Love the little chuckles when he said “B-roll”
I miss this Joshua Wiseman. Yall can keep the new one
I made this today and it was incredible. Also the video itself was very refreshing, you were so much more informative and genuinely enjoyable (and way way easier to actually watch) before the whole "it better be cwispy or papa will be vewy vewy angwy" type weird schtick
Am I the only one who saw the screen freeze at times while the audio continued to play?
No, had it too... not sure why noone talks about it
Me too! I had to come down to the comments to see if anyone else saw or it was just me
Me too I was waiting for him to address it
Same. Did it three different times for me. It went back to a frame from the beginning of the video.
Same????
3:21 hahaha i love for that “no sir it’s 9am” bottle tap lmao
Hands down THE best French Onion Soup recipe eveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeer
Hey dude just wanna say, seeing you make a masterpiece in that old ass pot that's all screwed up on the bottom makes me feel a lot better about serving up my own work to my guests from a pot very similar. Thanks for keeping it real dude.
I really appreciate how approachable and fun your attitude is towards food, as well as how you take areas that can seem really intimidating and simplify them. Also, your editing is bomb and always cracks me up. Keep doing what you love, you're bringing wonder back to food! 😃👏🏻
P.S. Yes I know this is an older video, what can I say, I've been binging. 😅😂
Remember seeing this video on the facebook for the first time and I was like "yeah i should try this one" . three years passed, no onion soup touched my mouth, but I'm thankful for facebook suggestion. Love watching your vids when hungry so i can be even more hungry.
I made this for a date it went down really well thank u josh 💓 💗
2:33 lol someone in one of my classes asked for a bandaid in class, just so she could say, "hey look at my bandaid!" and flip people off without getting in trouble.
It happened just today actually!
You did a good job at pronouncing Gouda!!
This is one of my favorite childhood dishes too. My mom taught me how to make it. I never thought of adding alcohol tho so I will definitely be interested in trying it (grew up in a dry houshold). I like to make this at the beginning of November when it gets that little chill out. (Ohio here). Keep doing you and totally support hooking up those deals!
Ohio as well! I think im going to try this soon I've never actually had it but I love carmalized onions.
@@whereschippi it's amazing even at bare minimum. I make beef stock from bullion (I know less fancy but you make do when you grow up poor lol) so if even that bit is awesome I've no doubt this recipe is going to be good. I'd recommend hitting up a farmers market since it's the season. You can grab a lot of onions for a great price. :D
It's a staple in my home.
I add thin sliced mushrooms.
Vary the cheeses i use.
Occasionally add a few pieces of thin sliced of garlic beef.
There is nothing better on a cold winter night.
Love the recipe, going to try this one next. Might leave out the bit of finger from cutting the onions though 😅. 1:59 no bandage, 2:05 bandage. We all been there
We had an extra bag of onions so I made this recipe tonight - with homemade baguette too thanks to your videos. I watched this a dozen times while making it and it never got old. Love these videos
"I prefer the latter" LIES!
Your recipe looks delish but for those traditionalists: in France, most chefs will only use yellow onion (sweet onions are too sweet for onion soup), and to compose the soup, crouton usually on the bottom (plus sometimes on the top) - this gives some body to the soup. The gratinee is mostly commonly made with Comte, tho your cheese blend would be excellent. Onion soup is the ultimate comfort food!!
yesterday i cook it and i mixed it a bit with diced potatoes and chicken breast, and add crisp bacon on top lol, also i add pepper and chilli flakes cus i love the heat
The video freezes at around 2:05
Anyone else?
Same, and again around 4:56
Yeah. Thought it was just me lol
Cubrakadabra should be fixed now :)
nope
“I got you people who don’t have oven safe bowls”
Me: oh josh you know me so well
“Do you wanna know what else you can dip, slurp and enjoy?”
DEEZ NUTZ!
Spilling stuff adds FLAVOR. Optional, but recommended.
i like your energy and enthusiasm
Legend has it that josh chose the latter because he knows he’s the “Rich beefy” man
" IT TAKES 3 DAYS FOR THE ONIONS TO CARAMELIZE!!!" ~ Gordon Ramsay
"*How Dumb must you be to put raw onions, in a caramelized onion soup*" Kitchen Nightmares
iirc he said 4 hours, not 3 days
damn if that's how long it takes him the onions are probably just sugar...
Bring your mom on the channel!
We've got some plannin on that goin on :)
Idea: instead of but better you could do a series called but vegetarian? I LOVE your videos and your cooking style so much, but my fiancé is allergic to meat :( he gets super sick. I would love some easy but tasty classics!
I make croutons out of our sourdough bread (Didn't finish the loaf and getting stale)..I butter both sides and toast in my Brava oven, then I put them in little mounds and cover with the cheese and toast them. The little rounds go onto the hot soup and so easy to tease apart with no worries about the bread getting wonky and splashing.
Any youtuber: puts white vine in something
Adam Ragusea fan: wait, thats illegal
Mirzach Sa lmao i cant watch a cooking video that includes white wine without thinking of adam
Could you send us a link please
Sry to newman but i LOVE adam's content. Its original, traditional and non proffessional. Everything i need irl
the b roll introduction laugh asfhdfh I LIVE
Life is not fair without French Onion soup. This recipe brought me back to life. 1,000,000/10
Tears and snorting laughter EVERY TIME you announce B-roll. I’m making this recipe ASAP!
"no sir it's 9am"
*Sips all the time off camera"
Thats the real reason behind the cut
I’ve never realized there was a socially-acceptable soup that has more types of alcohol in it than vegetables and still doesn’t get you drunk. Da more you know.
Well knowing that the content of alcohol actually almost disappear when cooked to a certain degree...
@@HikariTheDarkMan · But for the amount that doesn't burn away, how much alcohol put in initially would need to accumulate to get a person drunk?
@@izstrella no
@@nonanimeprofilepic • but yeeee
YES THE ONLY CHEF WHO KNOWS THAT IT IS “HOW-DA” instead of “GOO-DUH”
it's pronounced Gouda, cultuurbarbaar
Immedean I lolled at this comment, pure class!
@trevor
Replace the H with a G and you're close to the actual pronunciation
Frank van Zutphen lol - so glad to make you smile! I have family in Belgium so it’s been a life long struggle hearing it mispronounced, I love Joshua’s stuff but I appreciate him even more now!
@@raelindan Its called Goo-da, I'm austrian, we make cheese. Shut up.
@@tChimself Yeah, it's not as if the cheese is named after the Dutch town of Gouda and it's pronounced the Dutch way or something. So no it's definitely not goo-dah
This evening I was cold, hungry and tired, and I wanted and needed a hot soup to lift my mood -and my blood sugar. No such luck, I only had vegetables in my fridge, but lucky me, I "found" this great video that gave me the energy6 to make the onion soup. . . lucky me, I had all the ingredients necessary to make this soup except the fresh Thyme and the dry Sherry . . . One hour and a half later, my onion soup is almost done, sans the dry cherry and the fresh Thyme. For future cooking is there any other seasonings or the dry cherry I can use? I live in Japan and I don't think my super market carries dry cherry . . . February 18, 2022
Joahua!! This is the most legit soup I have ever made. My wife couldn't stop complimenting me and it. Thanks bro!!
Anyone notice how he tried not to laugh when he said b-roll 😂😂😂😂
Me(a muslim) : That seems a good recipe to make.
Joshua: Put a little wine.
Me: It's my time to leave
What a fucking dumb way to practice religion.
@@woosh3683 y tho
Well there is no alcohol left so I don’t see an issue
@@connykoorevaar1945 Problem is, in most muslim majority countries, including mine, alcohol and any kind of selling of alcohol outside of medical purposes is illegal, so you have to smuggle it illegally. A lot of people do that, but that's a line I'm not willing to cross.
@@spinyslasher6586 From an Adam Ragusa fan you can change it for 7 part water and 1 part white balsamic vinegar
Just 1 word describes ur cookin...art!
@Josh, I made this and the girlfriend loved it! Also made the ramen and I questioned whether to drop everything and just make ramen full time. Thank you! Please keep it up!
Ok. odd error going on. 430ish from when he goes to over proof bowls, it freeze the image and loads the outro closing the closet drawer. It goes to normal around the time he goes to the not oven proof.
it seems to do that every time I load it. So is that a general error in the video or somehing up with my stream of the video?
When I scroll over the red it seems to show the right images in the preview box oddly.
Hey there,
I have a real concern about your cast iron dutch oven, the layer of enamel missing at the bottom. Doesn't it goes into your food?
Nah it's not missing, it's just super duper stained. It just needs some R&R
I actually love this recipe, I make french onion often and it has never occured to me to use bourbon and I can say, that made a ton of difference. I don't have oven safe bowls so I melt the cheese down and get a little char on it using a brulé torch (for now, oven safe bowls on the way thanks Amazon)
I’m making this as I watch can’t wait to try
I deleted my dirty thirst comment when he said "girlfriend" made some logo...
Sagar Thorat 😂😂😂
But this is missing the one thing that makes a French onion soup extra good; having the cheese completely cover the soup and go over the crock
This dude is the GOAT of funny cooking channels 🔥 2nd is Sam the cooking guy 🔥

I don't know man..... In today's economy I might just choose both ;)
