Oignon Piqué from the kitchen of Sharmagne Leland-St. John Select a fresh white onion. Remove the peel and trim off the root end. (You can replant this in your garden or flower pot to grow a new onion!) Cut the onion in half and lay 2 bay leaves across the cut side using 2-3 whole cloves to "pin" them to the onion. Place the onion into a pot of broth or stock and cook until the onion is soft. Remove the onion from the broth and add the other ingredients to your soup.
