“Soup” is trending. Hard.
Searches are up, interest is spiking, and suddenly everyone is asking the same question we’ve quietly been answering for years:
What should I make when I want comfort without thinking too hard?
The answer, of course, is soup.
Warm, forgiving, endlessly adaptable soup.
And because See Sip Taste Hear has been quietly hoarding soup recipes since the mid-2000s (you’re welcome), now felt like the perfect moment to resurface a few classics from the archive. No hype. No clickbait. Just bowls that deliver.
Below are three soup recipes that hit different moods, different hunger levels, and different levels of emotional fragility.

Parsnip Bisque
A creamy sleeper hit with main-character energy

Parsnips don’t get nearly enough love, which is exactly why this bisque works so well. Slightly sweet, deeply earthy, and smoother than it has any right to be, this is the soup you make when you want something comforting and interesting.
Perfect for:
Cold nights when you’re bored of potatoes
Dinner parties where you want to look thoughtful
Convincing people parsnips deserve rights
This one feels fancy, but it’s lying. In a good way.
Potato Potage (Julia Child–Inspired)
Creamy, humble, and wildly comforting
π https://see-sip-taste-hear.blogspot.com/2006/04/recipe-potato-leek-potage.html
Potatoes doing God’s work. That’s the whole pitch.
This potato potage is soft, soothing, and deeply reassuring. It’s the culinary equivalent of pulling on a worn sweater that still smells faintly like butter and safety.
Perfect for:
Snow days
Sick days
Existential days
Any day that ends in “y”
If soup is trending because people are stressed, this is the bowl they’re actually looking for.
Split Pea Soup
Thick, hearty, and better the next day
π https://see-sip-taste-hear.blogspot.com/2007/03/thera-pea.html
Split pea soup doesn’t care about your feelings. It’s here to feed you properly.
Dense, filling, and unapologetically practical, this is the soup you make once and eat all week. It improves overnight, reheats beautifully, and quietly judges lighter meals.
Perfect for:
Meal prep
Cold climates
Anyone who believes soup should count
Like revenge, but edible.
Why Soup Is Trending (And Why You Should Lean In)
When Google Trends shows a spike in soup searches, it usually means a few things are happening at once:
Weather is colder
People are cooking at home more
Comfort food beats novelty food
Everyone is tired
Soup checks all the boxes. It’s economical, forgiving, scalable, and deeply satisfying. And unlike trends that vanish overnight, soup season sticks around.
Which makes this the ideal time to:
Resurface archive recipes
Build internal links
Capture seasonal search traffic
Remind people SSTH has been doing this for decades
Quiet confidence. Warm bowls.
Final Sip
Trends come and go. Soup endures.
If you’re new here, start with one of the recipes above.
If you’ve been around a while, welcome back—grab a spoon.
And if Google keeps trending soup?
We’ll keep feeding people.
Because honestly, that’s kind of the point.
