1/9 CHEF EMERIL LAGASSE, CELEBRITY CHEF RICHARD BLAIS

CHEF EMERIL LAGASSE - SERVES UP HEARTY RECIPES TO HELP US STAY WARM DURING NATIONAL SOUP MONTH

January is more than New Year’s resolutions and football playoffs; it’s about enjoying the comfort foods that warm our hearts and help us forget about the cold and dreary weather outside. It’s also National Soup Month and according to a recent survey, 86% of Americans agree that soup should be the official meal of winter. A warm bowl of your favorite soup on a cold day can be the perfect compliment to curling up on the coach or lounging in your PJs.

A big batch of soup can also be enjoyed for lunch and dinner throughout the week. However, most people do not feel comfortable transporting or storing soup without worrying about it leaking all over the fridge, your car, or workbag. In fact, 87% of Americans surveyed feel the need to double wrap food containers for leak protection. Legendary chef, Emeril Lagasse loves to create dishes inspired by the comforts of home.
