Prepare Beef Stock ahead of time, but keep hot on a low flame while preparing onions. There are some boxed versions to save time if you’re in a hurry, E.G. Rachel Ray.
Add Beef Stock to the carmelized onions and the sherry. At this point, you can choose to thicken it up with the Cornstarch–it really is a personal thing–Do you want a thicker French Onion consistency? It’s your call.
Add all of the Chicken Broth and the Worcestershire to taste. Maintain a low-medium boil for about 10+ minutes so the flavors blend .
Pour the Onion Soup mixture into an oven safe ceramic bowl. If you lack one of these, go to a thrift store and buy an old fashioned, brown crock soup bowl with a handle .
Place one or two pieces of Swiss atop the coated bread cubes; put under a broiler element and brown the cheese.
Obviously, don’t burn the cheese or you’ll want to invest in a different career, while you master anger management techniques.
