While the golden autumn is in full swing and the temperatures are slowly falling, the leaves are changing into warm autumnal shades, we long for one thing above all else: a little more coziness. Every year, autumn brings with it a very special magic. It is the time when we say goodbye to the hustle and bustle of summer and make ourselves comfortable on the couch with cozy blankets and a steaming cup of tea. It is the time when we breathe new life into our homes with autumnal decorations and dig our favorite sweaters out of the closet.
That's why we want to celebrate the arrival of autumn with you and inspire you with two delicious recipes that will help you make yourself really comfortable during this wonderful time of year.
1. Delicious pumpkin soup - served in a pumpkin bowl!
Pumpkin soup is the classic autumn recipe and rightly so! 🎃🍂 A spicy soup mix warms you from the inside and really warms you up after a long day. But if you want to try something new, we have a great idea for how you can serve the soup in a very special way: namely in the hollowed-out shell of a pumpkin! This turns the classic soup into an eye-catcher on your dining table. The perfect combination for an autumnally decorated dining table? Our tablecloth in midnight blue and our muslin napkins in pumpkin spice!
Here is the recipe for the soup:
Ingredients:
