It's Soup Season: Our go to recipe you will be cooking all FALL!

It's Soup Season: Our go to recipe you will be cooking all FALL!

Hello slow cooker, how have you been? When it comes to fall comfort food, hearty soups reign supreme. As the temperatures drop, what could be better than a steaming bowl of goodness? 

Our favorite soup recipe right now:  Sausage, Bean, and Kale Stew

Saute 1 onion (chopped) in Dutch Oven in a few tablespoons of olive oil over medium-high heat until softened. Add 2 garlic cloves (minced), salt, pepper, and a few flakes of crushed red pepper. Add in 8 links of Italian chicken or pork sausage (casings removed, crumble the meat with a fork) and cook until brown and heated through. Add one 32-ounce container chicken broth (add less if you like your stews more chunky, less brothy), a 14.5-ounce can diced tomatoes, and 2 14-ounce cans cannellini beans (rinsed and drained). Bring to a boil. Add 1 large bunch kale, simmer until wilted, about 3 minutes. Serve with a lot of freshly grated Parmesan and crusty bread.

Serve it up in our new stoneware collection.  These dishes, plates and bowls are perfect for sharing with loved ones and bring warmth to any gathering. Plus, nothing says “I’m ready for fall” quite like having a pot of soup simmering while the wind howls outside. Let’s not forget the ultimate culinary weapon, a Perfect Pot to serve that soup in, because if you’re going to indulge, you might as well do it right. Pair your meal with the elegant Bogen Sentier Satin Flatware Set to set the perfect table and don't forget the Abode Kitchen & Dining Collection for all your cooking essentials.

As we settle into the joys of fall, it’s also a gentle reminder that Thanksgiving is on the horizon. It’s time to start thinking about how to prepare for festive gatherings with friends and family. Planning ahead can save you from a last-minute scramble, and no one wants to show up at the grocery store the day before Thanksgiving in a panic. Been there, done that. 

Investing in beautiful centerpieces now, like a Black Leather Wrapped Vase, and elegant trays, such as a Natural Wood Handle Tray, can elevate your table settings throughout the season. Think of it as giving your dining room the glow-up it deserves. After all, a beautifully set table is half the fun of the feast. Just don’t blame us if you suddenly feel the need to host an impromptu dinner party. For those moments when you want to look sophisticated while wiping your hands, keep a Toffee Striped Tea Towel handy.
