cream of onion soup

How To Make cream of onion soup

• Step 1
  Add bacon to a large pot or Dutch oven and turn the heat on to medium. Once the bacon starts cooking, cook on one side for a few minutes until crispy, then flip and finish cooking the other side.
• Step 2
  Remove the bacon and place it on a plate lined with a paper towel; pat off as much grease as you can. When cool enough to handle, crumble bacon. Leave the bacon drippings in the pot.
• Step 3
  Add diced onion to drippings and cook until soft and brown, stirring often.
• Step 4
  Stir in the flour and salt to form a roux. Then gradually stir in the broth. Bring to a boil, stirring often.
• Step 5
  Turn the heat down to medium-high and cook, stirring, until the mixture starts to thicken, about 5 minutes.
• Step 6
  Remove from heat and stir in cream, Parmesan, and bacon. Stir until the Parmesan cheese is melted. Add lemon juice. Taste and add salt, if needed, to taste.
