French Onion Stuffed Potatoes

Tips for the Best French Onion Stuffed Potatoes

• Be patient with your onions: True caramelization takes time — low and slow is the secret to that deep golden color and rich flavor.
• Use Gruyère if you can: It melts beautifully and has that nutty, classic French onion soup flavor.
• Make ahead: You can prepare the filling and onions in advance — just assemble and broil when ready to serve.
