The perfect winter dish, soup is both versatile and satisfying. On November 19, it is celebrated with a food holiday in Germany, where one of the most popular soups is Kartoffelsuppe, or potato soup.

Created in 2013 by German food company GEFRO, this food holiday highlights the importance of soup in German cuisine, encouraging Germans to appreciate homemade and traditional soups, especially as autumn turns to winter.​

The day is also embraced by food enthusiasts and families looking to celebrate seasonal ingredients and traditional cooking methods.​

On Soup Day, Germans often prepare and share classic soups such as Kartoffelsuppe, lentil soup, cabbage soup, and other regional favorites. The celebration is both a culinary event and a way to bring families and communities together around comforting, nourishing meals.​
