It’s officially soup season – no denying it now (nice try, El Niño, but I’ll enjoy my soup regardless of record winter-highs). And I loooooooove me some soup season! Chilly outside, chili inside – that’s my motto. There is nothing cozier than a piping hot bowl of soup on a cold, winter day. It straight-up warms the soul.
One of my favorite things about soup is that it is one laaaaaaaaaid-back mofo. Soup’s not uptight or fussy, it’s a dish you can play with. You don’t have to be an experienced cook – just throw things in as you go and see how it turns out. It’s also a great way to load your meal up with some major veggies, which is always a clutch idea, especially during flu season.
This soup is a particular fave. I first came across the recipe – where else?? – on Pinterest. From the blog A Spicy Perspective, I pretty much follow it to the letter every single time, and every single time, it turns out amazing.
A melding of meaty, spiced Italian sausage, aromatic onion and garlic, tender red potatoes, fresh kale and salty parm, and kissed with white wine and a touch of cream, this not only makes the kitchen smell insanely come-hither, it brings smiles to every face at my dinner table – young and old not-quite-as-young. Whenever I serve this soup, it’s tough to hear over the slurps. It’s that good.
Put it in the rotation this soup season, El Niño be damned.
