Follow The Directions

01

Step
2 mins

In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan or Dutch oven, melt the margarine over medium heat. (2 minutes)

02

Step
15 mins

Add the sliced onions and sauté, stirring occasionally, for 10-15 minutes, or until they are deeply caramelized and golden brown. The longer you cook them, the richer the flavor. (15 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Add the minced garlic, dried thyme, salt, and brown sugar. Stir well to combine and cook for another minute until fragrant. (2 minutes)

04

Step
15 mins

Pour in 2 cups of red wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until the soup has reduced by about half. (15 minutes)

05

Step
20 mins

Add the remaining 2 cups of red wine and the chopped fresh parsley. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld together beautifully. (20 minutes)

06

Step

Serve hot, garnished with extra parsley, and accompanied by crusty garlic bread for dipping.

For a vegetarian option, use olive oil instead of margarine.
The caramelization of the onions is key to the soup's flavor, so don't rush this step.
A dry red wine with low residual sugar (0-1 sugar code) is recommended for the best flavor profile.
