French Onion Soup Dip
Ingredients
- 1 large onion chopped into rough dice
- 2 cloves small cloves garlic ( or 1 large), chopped fine
- 500 g cream cheese
- 2/3 cups Swiss cheese grated
- 1/3 cup white wine or sherry
- 1/2 cup mozzarella cheese grated
- 2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp brown sugar
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp pepper
- 1 tsp butter
- 14 drops Hedessent Roast Beef Flavouring
- 10 drops Hedessent Fried Onion Flavouring
- 1 baguette
Instructions
- In a medium-size, no-stick skillet, saute onion, salt, pepper, butter, and oil on medium-low heat. Slowly cook, stirring often until onions are a deep golden brown, 10-15 minutes.
- Add Hedessent flavorings, wine, and balsamic vinegar. Continue cooking until most of the liquids evaporate on low heat. Add brown sugar and remove from heat.
- In a medium-size mixing bowl, add the cream cheese and onion mixture. Stir to combine and then add Swiss cheese.
- Place in a 5” baking dish. Top with mozzarella cheese. Bake at 350°F for 20-25 mins until the cheese is browned and the dip is bubbly around the edges.
- Serve with a sliced baguette.
Notes
This recipe can be made a few days ahead and baked the day of serving. Hedessent Roast Beef flavouring adds the rich flavour we all love in onion soup. If you like a lighter taste, swap the Roast Beef for the same amount of Hedessent Roast Chicken flavour. Swiss cheese can be substituted with Emmenthal or Gruyere cheese for a more robust flavour.
