Onion Soup

[Jaxom37]

Can you get onion soup at the buffet at night??

 

Thanks

While we rarely eat in the buffet in the evening, I've never seen the French Onion soup offered.

Never seen it at the buffet but both the MDR & Blu have onion soup.

The more I think about the OP's question I really wonder if the buffet could offer a good French Onion soup. My husband is a great fan of this soup and orders it frequently. But in a buffet, where the food is not plated for each serving, wouldn't the bread crouton become too soggy?

Ditto - none in buffet but nightly in MDR and it's great!:)

[Jaxom37]

they would offer their awesome onion soup on the buffet :rolleyes:

OOOOOHHHH... Celebrity French Onion Soup! Next cruise that's all I plan on eating...sooooo good lol :D:p

I don't think you could serve French Onion Soup in the Oceanview. They would have to dedicate specific preparers like they havein the pasta area or eggs to order area. Otherwise the bread would get too soggy or the cheese may not melt correctly.

 

Anyway, that with escargots are my favorite in the MDR :)

I'm with you. I'll be on the Summit in January and will have it every night! Can't wait.

After tasting it we bought the Celebrity cook book. My DW and son have made it a couple of times at home. Great Soup! (but a real pain in the buns to make - I overheard the chiefs' conversations from our kitchen:eek:.)

Bistro on Five has the most terrific onion soup.

I would so love that recipe!! Didn't think of checking out the onboard cookbook [emoji20]. But yes bet it takes quite a bit of effort to get that each depth of flavour in the stock.

 

I didn't see it on offer in Bistro on 5 (on Solstice) but will look out for it on our next cruise on March!!

I do like the onion soup in the main dining room.

 

Is the one in the Bistro the same?

[lenbest]

Not for vegetarians as the onion soup on Celebrity is made with beef stock

I've never had onion soup in Bistro, Tuscan grill and the MDR yes but not Bistro. Since you've just sailed on Summit perhaps you had it as part of the new Summit only bistro menu that's sadly not fleet wide yet :(

I'd love to post it for you but I'm sure there is a copyright on it. But....;)

 

In Google you may find the answer you seek.;)

Lol, I understand...thanks for at least the thought!!

 

I have tried my friend Google but he hasn't given up the Celebrity recipe, (hope I haven't been blind and missed it!) seen something close though. I hope to try and make it now at least once before we are back onboard in March ( and I can check out the recipe book!!).

 

Cheers!

The onion soup on Celebrity is excellent, however it is a poor second to the attached recipe by Trish Desiene, (Irish cook, based in Paris)

http://www.rte.ie/lifestyle/food/recipes/2011/1003/1643-french-onion-soup/

 

This is truly a meal by itself.

As a cooks tip, you can add more liquid and add browning or colouring if you don't get the caramel effect when cooking the onions

Thanks for posting. Very similar to the one I posted earlier from Trish Desiene, only differences I can see is white wine for red, leeks and added cream.

The garish also has Mozzarella cheese.

The Onion Soup is excellent. I had it nine of the eleven nights. My wife is a Coeliac and they even made it for her without the croutons !
