Comfort Food




It was a coolish, dampish day, perfect for comfort food. I made pumpkin soup with some very good chicken bone broth I'd made the day before and lots of chopped celery, onions and garlic as well as red pepper flakes and thyme.


Also popovers. The recipe in The NY Times Bread and Soup Cookbook calls for "lashings of butter," which I usually ignore but not this time. After the election, we need all the comfort available.

A little sour cream in the soup and a spinach and purple cabbage salad, made a colorful presentation. And tasty too.
