Any suggestions for an alternate to the wine. We do not have any alcohol in our home, so recipes that use it are usually out for us. But I really want to make this soup. Would sparkling cidar do the same job of deglazing?

I have made this many times. It\u2019s my favorite French Onion soup.

I followed the written recipe to a 'T', (the video is a tad different) rewriting it in certain spots to make it easier for me to follow. I shopped for all the proper ingredients ahead of time but forgot the port wine so I had none on hand. Used very dry Sherry instead as a sip of that reminded me of my MIL and her idea of table wine which was always Port. It worked out well. I made this recipe the first time a while back but must've been very tired as I casually glanced at the amt. of sugar that said, \"1\/2 tsp.\" and read \"1\/2 cup\". Ugh! Realized my mistake with the first mouthful. Much better with only 1\/2 tsp.!!! LOL! Having followed the recipe properly this second time, I can say it's definitely worth a repeat. It's better than any French Onion Soup I've ever had in any restaurant. Think I'll even go out and invest in some Port wine for the next time... P.S. It took at least 1\/2 hr. longer than stated. For me anyway. But then I can be pretty meticulous when trying out new recipes.", "reviewRating": { "@context": "http:\/\/schema.org\/", "@type": "Rating", "ratingValue": 5, "worstRating": 1, "bestRating": 5 } }, { "@context": "http:\/\/schema.org\/", "@type": "Review", "datePublished": "2021-10-27", "author": { "@context": "http:\/\/schema.org\/", "@type": "Person", "name&q
