Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 cups yellow onions diced
- 1/4 cup shallots sliced
- 1 tablespoon garlic chopped
- 1 cup dry white wine
- 1 bay leaf

- 2 tablespoons dry sherry

Instructions
- In a medium saucepan, heat the olive oil. Add the onions, shallots and garlic and saute until they just begin to color. Transfer half of the onion mixture to a blender or food processor. Puree and return to the pan. Add the wine, bay leaf and stock and simmer for 10 minutes.
- Season with salt and pepper. (The soup base may be prepared in advance to this point and stored refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen indefinitely and reheated before finishing.) Just before serving, add the thyme, oregano, celery, leeks and sherry to the hot soup base.
- Bring to a simmer and simmer for 2 minutes. Do not overcook, the vegetables should retain their crunchy texture. Remove the bay leaf, stir in the chives.
