This is the best French onion soup recipe I know. I have been making it for 30 years and it never fails to please. It makes an exquisite presentation too!

Chef and omelette royalty Jacques Pépin teaches you how to cook the perfect french omelette.

Jacques Pépin adapted this recipe from his time as a breakfast cook at the Hôtel Plaza Athénée in Paris. Jacques uses melted vanilla ice cream and bananas here, but any flavor ice cream or fruit would work well.
