Soup season typically refers to the time of the year when people are more inclined to enjoy and prepare soups. While soup can be enjoyed throughout the year, there are certain seasons when it becomes particularly popular and comforting.

“Soup is a lot like a family. Each ingredient enhances the others. Each batch has its own characteristics, and it needs time to simmer to reach full flavour.”

Marge Kennedy
