Spring soup is a soup made with ingredients that are only in season for a short period during spring.[1] Although asparagus largely characterizes spring soup,[2] spring soup may include just about any spring vegetable added to a broth, chowder, or bisque.[3] Spring soup is popular largely because it includes fresh ingredients not seen for a while by the consumer.[4]
