I want to say thank you for the video, Linda! I want to say that I had recently made a batch of 10# of onions. I used Vidalia/sweet onions. They did not carmelize well. So in my research-it led me to the Onion Board. Within the FAQ's this was mentioned that sweet/Vidalia onions simply do not carmelize as well as what they call "storage" onions-the simple yellow onions. The water content is so high in the sweet onions that it turns into a big pile of cooked onions but not caramelized-unless you're willing to spend over an hour over the stove. They suggested for the best consistency in quality of your French onion soups, etc to use the 'storage'/yellow onions. Thought I'd share--and let any of your viewers who may have experienced frustration that it's not them! It's the onion.

Linda can you write down the recipe for French Onion & Mushroom Soup Please

OMG! Where has this video been hiding?!? I can't wait to try this!

Can You put the list of ingredients and amounts? Really looks good!

Hi Linda - I was wondering if you have a written recipe that you could supply for this? Would love to make it. The video was cut off just a tad short on a few of the qty/measurements, and I want to make sure! Thanks!

This could have soooo many uses! Obvously just soup Salisbury steak pot roast gravy base for potatoes over beef tips stroganoff base Swedish meatball base ust to name a few!

I just made this and it is so good! It made 14 pints. I used burgundy wine as that's what I had. Also used 1 1/2 cups of clear jel. Used 1/3 button mushrooms. Less clean up with the dishes than I've ever had canning. Doesn't need cream. Thanks Linda!

Linda I made this today and it turned out perfect! I call you & homestead heart my canner moms 🥰 you’ve inspired me in ways you’ll never know. A whole new way to not only eat but live my life. So glad I found you❤️

Looks beautiful in those jars! I can't wait to try this.

I can't wait to try this! You made such an awesome video Linda thank you 😊

This looks fabulous Linda. Keep up the good work

Love love love this soup . So useful in so many ways. Thankful for all your great videos.

I made this when you made your last video. We love it. I added it with a roast, added some cream and had soup, etc. I made pint and half jars last time, but now making quarts, we love it so much. Thanks for this reminder and thank you for this recipe! My family thanks you!

My goodness this onion mushroom soup looks divine. I must try it and thank you for sharing with us all. Blessings!

This looks wonderful! Can hardly wait to make some.

My husband says it's perfect! Just putting it in my jars now. Thank you for another amazing recipe!

Great recipe. I have seen you use this soup in so many recipes and it always looks delicious. Thanks so much Linda.Bev from Oklahoma...

This looks so good, Linda. I can't wait till I get to that stage of canning.

Hi Linda I made 11 pints of this soup today and am so pleased. I did not have surejel so it is thin but I will thicken when I use it. I am an excited new canner and am working on how to use the things that I am canning. This is a whole new way of cooking for me. Thank you for your wonderful videos. I am learning so much. ❤️🙏❤️

Looks amazing Linda

AFrench onion soup is one of the most favorite things I have ever canned! It is truly a special treat, and sooo easy to do 👍

Delish! Love it and thanks for sharing!

I found organic mushrooms on sale and now wish I would have bought them all. This soup is fantastic! I added cream to a bowl I had left! Wow! 😍 thank you!

Would love to taste this, bet it is amazing.

Sounds delicious!

Linda this is awesome...

This is amazing

Thank you for all of your time and inspiration. I have learned so very much from you. Now I am ready to use my pressure canner I bought years ago and was affraid to use it.

YUMMMMM.....im making this amazing recipe......Thanks so much

My family loves mushrooms and onions so this will be the next thing I try canning. This weekend is 40 pounds of chicken and stock. Thanks for your stock and chicken canning video as well.

Would love to make this! Do you have a written recipe or can you tell me what liquor you used for the wild mushrooms?

Looks awesome! Linda, do you have a video on how to use a pressure canner? I just got one for Christmas and I'm dying to use it. Thank you for all you share 😘

So good i am making second batch! Down to last jar.

im gonna try this soup tomorrow!

I think you are brilliant!

Linda I just bought a pressure cooker and started watching your videos a week or so ago. I just love you! I hope you upload as many videos as possible so I can see them! The mushroom/onion soup canning video is amazing! I have one of the old style blue canners that I got from my Mother-In-Law about 25 years ago will it work as well as your pressure cooker?

AMAZING, can't wait to save to afford to make this, THANK YOU* I WAS WONDERING is there a written tutorial for this Recipe , I was wondering how you Prepped your mushrooms as far as cleaning them and cutting??? I know I am going to LOVE THIS recipe * I already have the powdered Clear Jel , thanks*

his looks really good and something that would probably be great as a can that gets added to a can of venison or beef for a great meal.

Very nice video, I like all your videos :-)

I'm drooling...........

Linda's Pantry I hear the music intro but I can't hear you talking at all. This was the same thing with your last video. At first I thought it was me but other videos play with sound for me.

Looks amazing but could we get the written recipe? Some of the measurements and ingredients were a bit vague and I would hate to get it wrong.

Wow!

Oh yum - I adore French Onion - haven't tried canning it yet, but now I will!

YUM.......

Hey, Linda. I LOVE this video and I'm going to use your recipe to can some wild mushroom soup. We just got a TON of King Trumpets, Enoki, Shiitake, Maitake and more! We don't consume GMOs and Clear Jel is GMO. Have you ever used Cornaby's Ultra Gel? It's gluten-free and non-GMO. It's supposed to be the same as Clear Jel. OR...could I just thicken our soup when we open the jar with a little organic potato flakes we've dehydrated from our own harvests? Would that alter the flavor too much? THANKS SO MUCH! LOVE YOU and YOUR CHANNEL!!! GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES, LINDA! :) PS We have GSPs, too! They're the best!

Do you have a written recipe with exact amounts?

Yummolicious

Another Great Video, Linda !... How do you prepare the soups after opening? Is it equal parts half&half ? Will you be doing a video on one of those casseroles ? BTW... Have you read the ingredients on ANY "Cream of..." soups? There's NO questioning that yours IS healthier. I'd think the supermarket's stuff just might even be toxic. Just saying... 😒 Thanks Again,+Blessings

My Gish this us good! Having to buy mushrooms ran me about 40 dollars for 12 pints. Well worth it!

Hi Mrs Linda! Do you have any suggestions for substitutes on the alcohol in the recipe? I'm not opposed to alcohol, but I have VERY sensitive taste buds and I had to actually throw away a dish once because I could taste too much alcohol so I just like to cook without it. Are there any alternatives? Thank you!

Do you have to use the clear gel. Can I thicken it when I use it?

I want to make this the only thing is I have to use beef base that I make on my own, am learning that many of those meat bouillons still have some tint of MSG and that gives migraines to my youngest. Is there a way to make this recipe and do it with broth we make on OUR OWN?????

Looks delicious! I have question about the use of Better Than Bullion. Is it safe? I notice that it contains milk and soy. Which I thought were canning no no's. As I type this I am cooking your zucchini, lemon & garlic soup. It smells amazing, can't wait to taste it! Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

I wonder if I could use arrowroot o thicken instead of clear gel?

I would have to take all the black fungus out because you can chew those for days and it's like trying to eat a rubber band! When I do french onion soup I peel and cut at a minimum 10 lb of onions! And that makes enough soup that will last maybe 3 days?? I will shovel that stuff in with Swiss cheese and a crouton every day of the week if I could! :-)

Omg I can’t wait to make this today. Linda what is the name of he wine you used?

Where did you get your dried mushrooms?

Yep !!! I'm Inspired ! Items are on my shopping list ! :}

LINDA WHATS THE LIQUID ON THE BOWL OF MUSHROOMS AND HOW MUCH. ty for posting this for me again.

Linda, I see the raves about this soup. Can it be made without mushrooms? We are very allergic to them. Thanks!

This may sound like a dumb question to you experienced canners but if I don't ask I will never know..... is this condensed like Campbells cream of mushroom or do I need to take out two cans of homemade for every one can of Campbells a recipe may call for?? Thank-you and have a lovely day!!

Are Cremini mushrooms the same as Baby Bellas?

Why wouldn't you just thicken it when you open it the jar and heat it up? This soup sounds SO good. But personally I think that's the option I'll go for.

nice recipe. gotta save a glass of wine for yourself

Is arrow root safe to can with?

linda better than bollium sell mushroom base.

I have alway put cream in mine but now I don't because I'm diabetic and the calories are just to much

Are you a prepper?

Mmmm!!! Black fungus!!! 🤣

This looks very good, but Clearjel is not ok for pressure canning, even if you are successful with it (jars sealing). I have looked at all the sites I can to see if it is possible to use it for that (universities and the gov), after you open the jar yes, but it is not approved for this. I am also a bit worried about the wine, as I cannot find any info on using wine like this? I have my mushrooms (what a ton of them) and the onions too. I also have the wine because since the alcohol evaporates I feel this would be ok. But I will thicken later just in case...I don't have enough experience and am not a master food preserver (wish!) either to know enough. I did order the clearjel though through Hoosier. Also what is the liquid in the mushrooms that are soaking?, sounds like you say liquor? Or liquid? I am not clear on that. All my mushrooms are fresh and I am using 4 kinds.

I'm getting embarrassed. You're talking love words to me ... french onion, mushroom, home made, ...
