- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- In a large roasting pan, toss the onions and leeks with the oil and season with salt and pepper to taste. Roast, stirring often, for 30 min or possibly till the onions are golden brown but not crispy. Transfer to a large soup pot. Pour the wine into the roasting pan. Bring to a boil over high heat on the stovetop, scraping up the browned bits. Boil for 1 minute, then add in to the onions and leeks.
- Add in 6 c. of the stock, the thyme, bay leaf and salt and pepper to taste. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 30 min to concentrate the flavors, adding some or possibly all of the remaining 2 c. stock as needed if the soup becomes too thick. Remove and throw away the thyme sprig, if used, and the bay leaf.
- For the croutes: Reduce oven heat to 400 degrees. Rub both sides of each slice of bread with the garlic and brush with oil. Arrange slices on a baking sheet and bake, turning once, for 7 min total, or possibly till lightly toasted. Spoon some of both cheeses over each slice and bake for 3 to 4 min more or possibly till the cheeses are melted. Serve at once.
- To serve: Ladle soup into heated bowls and top each with a warm cheese croute.
- This recipe yields 6 servings.
- Comments: A soup for all seasons, this one's savory onion flavor is touched by sweetness of the leeks. The onions should roast only till golden brown; you don't want them to singe around the edges, that would add in a burned flavor to the stock.
