After this soup has finished simmering, preheat oven to 375ºF. Have ready a
lightly buttered, ovenproof earthenware soup bowl or deep casserole dish.
Heat 4 Tablesps butter in a heavy, medium saucepan. Add onions and cook until
translucent. Add the flour and stir. Add the broth and stir. Simmer for about 30
minutes. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper. Put the soup in the ovenproof
bowls.
Thinly slice the Superb Rolls, discarding the ends. Toast the slices in a toaster
oven (they will brown quickly, so take care not to burn). Butter the slices and put them
on top of the soup. Sprinkle cheese on top. Do not cover. Put the bowls in the oven for
about 15 minutes until the cheese and Superb Roll slices look crusted over and slightly
browned. Serve at once.

You can add cooked chicken cut into bite-sized pieces to this soup if you want
something a bit heartier. This is very good with a thin slice of lemon floating on top.
