I'm making Soup Advent Calendar using the content I made as "Soup Stories" on Hive Blog.

I started a group named Gohan Power, a name coined by my partner that I adore for its blend of Japanese and English, with my partner in 2016. Most of the current activities are done by myself including serving meals at a local market, create food products, host events, catering etc.

As December rolls in and the year-end approaches, I've been pondering ways to show my gratitude to everyone who has supported us. For our market customers, I plan to gift samples of yukari made from shiso leaves used in our shiso syrup and samples of our homemade miso.

However, I also wanted to offer something enjoyable for those we can't meet in person. That's why I came up with the idea of a "Soup Advent Calendar."

Yes, I can utilize the Soup Stories I've been compiling on Hive Blog since last year! So far, there are 18 published soup stories. Adding six more by the 24th seems like an ambitious but achievable goal.

I've already shared six soups on Instagram since December 1st 😊

I'm happy to share the soups here on Hive Blog with a big big thanks!

December 1

Spanish Bread Soup. It's the very first dish of Soup Stories and what I posted on the first day.

December 2

Hot and Sour Soup. A soup filled with memories from my time in Tokyo, it's the latest post on Hive Blog. Its tangy flavor is addictive, and it's perfect for warming up.

December 3

Winter Schatz Soup, a favorite of mine for its gentle taste and name.

Soup Stories #2: Winter Schatz Soup / 冬の宝物のスープ

December 4

Detox Leek Soup, featured in the global bestseller "French Women Don't Get Fat." A must-remember recipe for this season of overindulgence.

Soup Stories #5: Detox Leek Soup / ポロネギのデトックススープ

December 5

Freestyle Miso Soup. A recipe showing how delicious miso soup can be even without dashi, using just the umami of vegetables, and also a promotion for the miso I produce locally.

Soup Stories #7: Freestyle Miso Soup / 自由なお味噌汁

December 6

Pumpkin Soup. A versatile dish that can be enjoyed in winter with some tweaks – add ginger, spices, and coconut milk for a curry twist that pairs well with rice.

Piling up content like this is really great. Next year, I aim to create a small booklet of soups.

18 more days to go, I'll keep at it! I'll be writing about it on Hive Blog too. Have a nice December to all!

私はGohan Powerというグループ名（相方が名付けたもので、いかにも外国人がつけた日本語と英語の組み合わせを気に入っています）で、マーケットで食事を提供したり、プロダクトを作ったり、イベントをホストしたり、食に関する活動をしています。

12月に入り、年末だし、日頃お世話になっているみなさんに何か楽しいお礼をしたいなと考え始めました。マーケットで直接会えるお客さんには紫蘇シロップに使った紫蘇の葉で作ったゆかりや、お味噌のサンプルをプレゼントしようと思っているのですが、直接会えないお客さんにも何か楽しいコンテンツを提供したいなと考え始めて、思いついたのが「スープのアドベントカレンダー」です。

そう、Hive Blogで書きためてきたSoup Storiesを使えるのです！公開したスープは18皿。24日までにあと6杯足すのは不可能ではない現実的なゴールでいいなというのもあり。

さっそく12月1日から一週間ほど、InstagramでSoup Storiesに書いたスープを公開しています。
