By akselden

Ingredients

• 4 large white onions, thinly sliced into circles
• 1/2 c. white wine
• 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
• 3 tbsp whole-wheat pastry flour
• 5 c. vegetable stock
• 1 tbsp miso paste (available in Asian markets)
• Low-Sodium soy sauce or tamari to taste

Preparation

Step 1

In a heavy pot over medium heat, saute the onions in the wine for 20 to 25 minutes, stirring frequently. Don't let the onions brown until the last 5 minutes or so. (Add water if they begin to brown too soon).

Add garlic, cook 5 minutes. Add flour, cook 3 minutes. Add stock and bring to a boil, then simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes.

Remove 1/4 cup liquid from pot to a small bowl, blend with miso until dissolved, then return mixture to pot.

Season to taste with soy sauce or tamari and serve hot.
