FAQs
Can I use red onions instead of yellow?
Sure! Red onions are a bit sweeter and make the soup a lovely color. Honestly, I’ve tried both and either way it’s tasty. With red onions you can skip sugar if needed.
Do I really need the wine?
Honestly, not at all. I usually add it for a little extra depth, but if you don’t have any or don’t want to use alcohol, just pour in a bit more veggie broth or a splash of apple cider vinegar. It still tastes amazing.
Can I make it spicy?
Yes, you can. Just add a little chili flakes or a splash of hot sauce to give it a gentle kick. Keep it light though, because onion soup is meant to be warm and comforting, not too fiery.
