1/2 lb Firm white onions; sliced
1/4 c Butter
2 tb Corn oil
3 tb Flour
1 qt Chicken broth
1 qt Beef broth
8 sl French bread
Swiss cheese; shredded
Parmesan; grated

Saute onions in butter and oil until onions are transparent, but not well
browned. When tender, turn heat to lowest point and sprinkle with flour,
stirring vigorously. Pour into Dutch oven and stir in broths. Heat
thoroughly and divide among 8 oven-proof bowls. Float a slice of bread atop
each serving. Mix equal parts of cheese to smooth paste and spread over
bread. Place all bowls on oven rack 4" from broiler heat and broil until
cheese melts. Serve at once. Leftover soup freezes well up to 6 months.
