Hello Margaret! I’m old and no longer grow scallions or onions. I now rely on a generous neighbor to supply fresh produce. I have made onion soup according to a recipe given to me by my grand-daughter and it is very nice, but I am going to try David’s recipe next time. I’ve been following you both for years. Thanks for all you share. XOXOXO

Although it is too late to win a book, I would like to praise the healthy virtues of onion soup. Years ago, an elderly friend of my father told how during the Spanish flu of the early 1900’s, his entire family were stricken and so ill that they couldn’t get into their beds – there were 11 children – every one was laying on the floor. Someone looked in a window and saw them, came in and made onion soup and revived every one. Not one of them died. That flu was more deadly than any know in modern times. I have had opportunity to try the remedy myself and found that when you are feeling very ill from flu, onion soup helps you feel better very quickly.
