Soup's On!
With our clocks falling back by an hour this month, winter is certainly setting in on us. With the sun setting earlier, some days making dinner is the last thing I want to do after a hard day at work.
That’s why I love to spend time in the kitchen on weekends, when I have the time and energy to make some delicious creations. One of my favourite weekend projects in the kitchen is to experiment with ingredients, to make soups that can be stored and reheated on the stove for dinner throughout the week.
This month we’re pleased to share with you, some of our favourite soup recipes and tools, including one of my favourite small kitchen appliances, the Bamix immersion blender.
As you cope with the reality of a rapidly approaching winter, don’t let the daylight savings blues get you down; try some of our favourite soup recipes, experiment with flavours and textures, and invite your friends over for a potluck soup dinner!
