Eating French onion soup is a delightful experience, and here's how to navigate it gracefully:
-
Break the Cheese Barrier: Using both your soup spoon and knife, gently push the melted cheese against the rim of the bowl (or cup). Use the knife to cut through the cheese, separating manageable pieces.
-
Combine Cheese and Broth: After breaking the cheese, use the knife to nudge pieces of cheese onto your spoon along with the broth and onions.
-
Enjoy Each Bite: Savor the combination of the rich broth, sweet caramelized onions, crusty bread (if included), and the savory, melted cheese in each spoonful.
In summary, the key to eating French onion soup is to use your knife to manage the cheese, allowing you to enjoy a balanced spoonful of all the delicious components.
