Smokin’ soup

In Sunday’s paper:

This was about the most fun I’ve had writing an article. Thanks, [Becky](http://www.seasonalcornucopia.com/)! Thanks, [Dana](http://www.tastingmenu.com/)! During the photo shoot, I did at one point drop a piece of dry ice into the soup. That was cool. Not enough soups are carbonated.

    Nice! Where’d you get the dry ice? Having it under the soup didn’t make it cold?

    Every staffed supermarket seafood counter sells dry ice, and it’s cheap. The amount of dry ice you need to produce an awesome amount of steam is not enough to cool the water very quickly. So the soup is insulated by a layer of ceramic and then a layer of warm water.

    That was a fun day! I almost missed out on the soup making though, Iris was introducing me to all her little characters, on a pirate ship.

    I’ll bet pirates would like the smoking soup.
