As the leaves fall, the heat goes on, the temperatures drop and the sweaters and jackets are pulled from storage, it's also a great time to think about making a pot of soup. There's something about the transition from summer to fall that feels particularly cozy. Maybe it's the smell of woodsmoke in the air or the rich colors of the foliage outside your window. Whatever the reason, the arrival of autumn often brings with it an overwhelming urge to get into the kitchen and cook something warm and comforting.
For many of us, soup is the ultimate comfort food, especially during the cooler months. Whether you're a fan of creamy tomato soup or a spicy black bean number, there's just something about a warm, steaming bowl that feels like a big hug in a bowl.
So what makes fall the perfect season for soup? For one thing, the cooler weather gives us an excuse (not that we need one) to get creative in the kitchen and try out new recipes.
