National Homemade soup day

National homemade soup day

February is still the middle of winter. And, it’s mighty cold and snowy outside. We turn to rich and flavorful homemade soup to warm us up and to take the chill out of the air. Homemade soup is good for the mind, body, and soul. Today is National Homemade Soup Day, a February 4 holiday. We celebrate it at the perfect time of the year. So, get out your big stock kettle and make your favorite soup. I can almost smell the homey aroma wafting from the kitchen.

Soup has been filling and warming us up since almost the day man began to use fire for cooking. Various research estimates suggest it was first consumed 9,000 to 20,000 years ago. Did you ever wonder how researchers know this!? Anyways, all ancient cultures discovered soup at some long ago point in time. While it is most often consumed warm or hot, some soups are served cold. The best examples of this are Borscht, or beet soup, and Gazpacho.
