I love a good soup book! This one separates soup by season but I never hold a soup to that. Soup should not be limited to a time of year. I always do soup by cravings.

What did I like? So I bookmarked a few soups to try. Broccoli and cheese, corn chowder, and French onion are a great place to start! I like to see what people do to make this soup their own. Plus it’s always delicious!

Would I recommend or buy? I think this book had quite a few different soups to offer. Nice pictures and some soup favorites make me want a copy for myself. I’d recommend to people looking to try a few soups outside basic ones. I enjoyed looking at and deciding which ones to try.

I received a complimentary copy to look at and offer a opinion.

I saw this on Netgalley and I was so excited that it was a ‘Read Now.’ This will be a cookbook that I will own! I’ve got quite the cookbook collection going but I cannot wait for this one.

I love soup and I know that I don’t really get as much in the Spring and Summer but there are some great options here. Mostly, my husband will not eat soup if it’s hot out. haha, There are many of your classic soups and a lot of new ideas too. One of the best things about this book is that there are options for other things to make with the leftover soup. Let me say that again, there are other meals to make from the leftovers!! I think this is such a brilliant thing to offer in a cookbook! I’m not sure how successful a lot of the second meals would be because I have freeze a lot of soup now, but it’s great to have that option. One that I really can’t wait to try is the Broccoli Cheese soup that gets repurposed into baked Broccoli Cheddar Pasta!

There are also a lot of really great-sounding mix-ins to add to your soups too. Many of them can be homemade like grilled-cheese croutons. There are tips for freezing and using different cooking methods, like an instant pot.

If you like soups anytime or just in the fall/winter then check this one out!

Many thanks to Netgalley and Chronicle Books for an e-arc. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

I love cookbooks that are arranged seasonally. This is one I definitely plan on buying when it is available in print.
