In reply to Alessandra DeLaCruz. Thanks for trying it and sharing your feedback! I’m so glad you enjoyed the flavor. Broths can definitely vary in saltiness, so adjusting the salt to taste is always a good call. I’ll take another look at the timing, too, and give a little more wiggle room for prep. Love the addition of sage and lentils, too!

In reply to Nicola Grossi. Hi Nicola, the notes section shares ways to prepare the cheese if you don't have oven-safe crocks. I just added a link to oven-safe crocks in the equipment section. The brand is Kook, but Le Creuset and Le Tauci make nice ones, too. Let me know if you have any other questions. :)

I don’t see your suggestion for oven-safe soup crocks. Are they still available? Could you tell me where the note is, or just tell me which crocks you suggest? Thanks!

This was pretty good, except it easily takes 2 hours not 1 hour and 15 mins lol…. Chopping 2.5 lbs of onions takes far more than 15 mins, so just be prepared for that. I also didn’t use as much salt (1/2 the amount) bc my veggie stock was already quite salty (I use the better than bouillon veggie from the jar, 2 quarts =8 cups, and 1 teaspoon per cup = 2 table spoons of the better than bouillon + 2 tsp. But I only used two table spoons and 1/4 tsp of salt and was plenty salty)

I also think it could do with less v butter in the beginning. Overall v flavorful though, I added some sage and red lentils for a little protein.

In reply to Dalatias. Thank you! Yes, it freezes well for 2-3 months in an airtight container. :)

I haven't made it yet; but it looks sooo delicious I'm thinking of doubling or tripling the recipe. Which leads me to my question: can the soup (sans bread+cheese) be frozen for future use?
