== Directions ==
# Melt butter; add onions, stir to mix. Cover and cook slowly, 10–12 minutes until soft but not brown.
# Place flour in another pan. Add milk and seasonings, bring to boil, stirring the entire time. 
# Add Onion mixture. Reduce heat to low, simmer covered 8–12 minutes. 
# Do NOT boil, as this will cause the soup to curdle because of acid in onions.
# Mix egg yolks with cream until smooth. Stir 2 T. hot soup into yolks, stir, add a bit more hot soup to bring yolks up to temperature. 
# Stir this back into the soup. Reheat carefully over low heat until slightly thickened. 
# Check seasonings and adjust if needed.
# Serve with a few croutons floating in bowls.
