With the days shorter and the weather turning chilly, you're likely setting your sights on the warm, comforting flavors of autumn. Just in time for fall, The Kitchen is getting set to dedicate an entire episode to one of the season's most-satisfying dishes: soup. From rich, creamy purees to simple broths studded with noodles and veggies, the co-hosts want to help you make your best bowl yet this year, and they need you — the fans — to tell them how you enjoy soup and what you'd need to make your soup recipes better. Answer the first round of poll questions below, then check back on Monday to cast the rest of your votes.
