Soy sauce adds a distinct rich aroma to traditional French onion soup. This version also incorporates a bit of garlic sautéed with the onion.

4 tablespoons butter
5 onions, sliced
2 cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 teaspoons beef base or bouillon granules
5 cups water
1 cup soft bread crumbs, toasted
1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese

2. Preheat broiler.
3. Ladle soup into oven-safe soup bowls; sprinkle with bread crumbs and Parmesan cheese. Place under broiler until cheese melts, about 3 minutes.
