And I think this fall, it needs to finally become a reality. Friends of mine, heed this warning: You will be invited over to have some soup. But also, you’ll need to bring some soup. And you’ll need to try someone else’s soup while you’re here. Basically, BYOB is out and BYOS is in. A soup party, by my definition at least, is a party where everyone brings a soup to share. An excuse to celebrate the most perfect food. A reason to gather ’round the stove and my bright red Dutch oven. Because sure, you can make soup in any pot, but there’s just something undeniably festive about cooking a big batch of something in an enameled workhorse designed to be specifically well-suited for the job. Read the guide [The best Dutch oven is this inexpensive one→](~/AAAAAQA~/RgRo93ztP0TXaHR0cHM6Ly93d3cubnl0aW1lcy5jb20vd2lyZWN1dHRlci9yZXZpZXdzL2Jlc3QtZHV0Y2gtb3Zlbi8_Y2FtcGFpZ25faWQ9MjkwJmVtYz1lZGl0X3djZF8yMDI0MTAyMCZpbnN0YW5jZV9pZD0xMzcyNTMmbmw9dGhlLXJlY29tbWVuZGF0aW9uJnJlZ2lfaWQ9MTY2NDMzODk0JnNlZ21lbnRfaWQ9MTgwOTExJnVzZXJfaWQ9NmM1M2I2M2E4ZTNmYWQ3MGFkNGVmMTMwMDQ1Mjc0MzdXA255dEIKZxLt9xRn5dQshFIbdHJpc3RyYW1iYWxkd2luODZAZ21haWwuY29tWAQAAAAD) In my mind, some friendly competition will ensue—a final vote to see whose soup is the best. Perhaps there will be categories: heartiest, most comforting, most likely to be craved while sick. A soup party can be whatever you want it to be—ferociously competitive or perhaps more mannered—but whatever shape it takes, I’m actually doing it this year, and I hope you’ll join me.
