German Apple Onion Soup Recipes

APPLE ONION SOUP

Steps:

• Peel and thinly slice the carrots. In a large saucepan, begin heating the chicken broth and carrots. Bring to a boil and then drop the temperature down to a simmer.
• Meanwhile, cut the onion into halves or quarters and slice so that you have long slices of thin cut onion. When are just barely getting tender, drop in the onions and stir. Continue simmering.
• Peel, core, and chop the apples. When onions are softened, drop in the apples. Heat until carrots and onions are completely soft and apples are warmed through and slightly softened.
• Place one slice of cheese into each of four individual bowls. Ladle soup equally into each bowl. As the heat from the soup melts the cheese, stir the soup to mix it around. If cheese does not melt evenly, you might try ripping the cheese into smaller pieces before mixing inches.

GERMAN APPLE-ONION SOUP

Steps:

• Set aside about 1/2 cup of the onions to use later as a garnish. Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat. Stir in the onion, and cook until the onion has softened and turned translucent but not browned, about 10 minutes. Pour in the chicken broth, beef consomme, apple juice concentrate, apple juice, and applejack liquor. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and season with the white pepper. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer 1 hour.
• To serve, place a pinch of the reserved raw onions in the bottom of a soup bowl. Ladle the soup into the bowls, and float a few slices of apple on top to serve.
