Can you cook on high for half the time, or not?

I am going to try this today, but cut down on the margarine and oil, making it an extremely diet friendly soup.

What kind of onions make the best soup?

I have made this a number of time on the stove not cooker and it is great along as you add a few extra's.

restaurant great!

@jbarnaby4253 4921774 - Yes, you cook this recipe on low for 8 hours. Hope this helps! - RecipeLion Editors

I guess you cook it on low for the eight hrs.????

The soup taste like a resturant soup. I used a french bagette for the bread part and 3 pieces fit in a bowl and it worked great!

I used 3 lbs. of onions instead of 2 to make it chunkier. It turned out great! It makes alot, so I froze some to eat later. Thanks for the recipe..
