Steps
- 1Cook aromatics in fat until they smell sweet and savory.
- 2Add the main ingredients and season them before the liquid goes in.
- 3Pour in stock, then simmer until the texture feels joined together.
- 4Adjust thickness with more broth, rice, beans, or a short uncovered simmer.
- 5Finish with acid, herbs, or a small spoon of sauce before serving.
Grit & Soul tip
Soup gets better when you season in layers. The last splash of acid is often what wakes it up.

The memory belongs below the recipe.
A good soup is not filler. It is the pot people come back to when the day needs resetting.
Grit & Soul keeps the cooking directions easy to reach first. The story still matters, but it should never make someone scroll forever before they can cook.
