Melt the butter in a pot, than add the onion and cook it slowly for approximately 1 hour . The onion has to cook on a gently flame and never be burned. Add now the flour and mix. Toast the flour on gentle flame, than add the stock. Notice: the stock has to be hot before you add it ! Now cook for about 30 minutes. Once the soup is ready you can serve it with a slice of toasted bread , some grated parmigiano , the gruyere and some butter flakes.
