Preparation

In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and cook onions 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Add sweet potato and cook for 3–4 minutes.

Deglaze with red wine and reduce by half. Add broth and rosemary, bring to a boil and let simmer 15 minutes.

Preheat oven to 450 °F (230 °C).

Divide soup among oven-safe bowls, top each with a slice of toasted bread and a handful of both cheeses. Place bowls on a baking sheet and cook in the oven until cheese is melted and golden. Serve immediately.
