I use gruyere cheese for my French Onion Soup recipe. Brandy too.

"I love Gruyere by itself, and in French Onion Soup…. Now I’m hungry for some French Onion soup. Gotta put that on the list for cold winter days."

I made French Onion soup a couple of weeks ago. I use gruyere on top. Add a cup of dry sherry to the pot.

Thanks. I’m afraid I’ll have to forgo the dry sherry. Not that I wouldn’t like it. Alcohol and my meds don’t play nice with each other. It will still be good.

Sorry that alcohol interferes with your meds. I'm diabetic. Was diagnosed about 25 years ago, and still take oral medication for it. The dry sherry in the soup is the only alcohol I use. The sherry idea came from a recipe for French Onion Soup from the Dobbin House Restaurant in Gettysburg, Pa. I'd had their French Onion Soup several times and loved it. Bought a set of their recipe cards many years ago which included their recipe for the soup. I'd never heard of putting sherry in before that, so tried it. I also add thyme and paprika to the Dobbin House recipe. Those two ingredients, I got from another recipe and just put the two recipes together. That same Dobbin House recipe is also the only one I've seen that calls for topping the soup with Gruyere cheese. It's very hard to find Gruyere Cheese around here. Most places only sell it in small blocks and it's expensive. I finally found a local grocery store that sells shredded Gruyere and Swiss together in a bag, and it's much cheaper. Happy soup making!!!
