Catherine said...

What a fabulous giveaway! I would make my mom's famous beef stew (secret recipe, so sorry not to be able to share!) and would invite lots of people over to enjoy the last moments of chilly weather before Florida's full-on summer begins.

Danielle said...

Wow!!! I would love to be able to make my yummy potato cheese soup! As a stay at home mom of three, I would never be able to afford such a nice piece on my own! My blog is private, but just in case I win, my email is LVMEXDER@AOL.Com

I have been wanting to make French Onion soup since its still so chilly where I live (plus I just love soup!) I would love to use the stockpot to make this yummy French Onion Soup recipe:


* 8 onions, sliced
* 2 cloves garlic, minced
* 1/3 cup olive oil
* 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
* 8 cups beef stock
* 1/4 cup dry white wine
* 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
* 1 bay leaf
* Salt and pepper
* 1 loaf French bread
* 2 cups grated Gruyere

Directions

Saute onions and garlic in oil over low heat until tender and golden yellow. Sprinkle flour over onions, cook a few minutes more, browning the flour well. Add stock and wine and bring to a boil, add thyme and bay leaf. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer gently for 20 minutes or so. Add salt and pepper, to taste.

Meanwhile, slice French bread into 3/4-inch slices and butter both sides. Toast slices on griddle until golden brown. Ladle soup into an ovenproof bowl, add toasted bread and cover with cheese. Place ovenproof bowl on a baking sheet lined with tin foil. Bake at 350 degrees F or 5 minutes under a hot broiler.

Thank you so much for letting me enter your fun giveaway!

Jenna said...

I would cherish it was an heirloom to make soups and stews in for my children.
I am not kidding when I say I have secretly been yearning or a nice one, one I could use for a lifetime, noe I could pass down to my girls someday with lots o secret recipes and a lifetime of cooking and laughing together.
I would make chicken and wild grain rice soup when they are sick--their very own request when they are under the weather! I would make use homemade chili, bean soup, tortilla soup and various other *comfort methods* in soup form on all sorts of cold winter nights. Soups for dunking with large chunks of homemade bread and biscuits. Soup for sharing with friends when someone is born, someone dies, someone needs a good meal to cheer them up.
It might sound hokey to some, but to me having the chance to have such a nice pot is really only a giveaway-type-of-chance since my single mom income can't pencil it in at the moment. And the gift to me and my family would be huge. Not only in me being able to make the things above and pass them down to my daughters, but for me to be able to make them at all!
Thanks for the chance to win such a lovely pot. Your blog is on my reader and remains a favorite no matter what!

Vegetable chili for a big ol' Scrabble party. Mmm!

Jeanette said...

I would make this new recipe that my mother in law gave me - homemade tomato soup. I am so anxious for my tomatoes to start growing so that I can use them instead of canned. When most people think of tomato soup they think boring - but this is the best recipe ever. If you would like it just let me know.

Secret ingredient is pickling spice.

Anne said...

I don't even know what you can make in something like that (that's how completely clueless I am about cooking). You can make pot roast in that thing right? :) Oh how I wish I knew how to cook. Someday...

Ashley Thalman said...

Among other things, I would cook my mom's taco soup and our favorite pumpkin bisque. Oh, and my grandma's stew. Oooh I can just smell the spices now...

Jodi said...

I would make an extra big batch of the best soup I've ever made: Pumpkin Curry soup. It's so delicious!

Meredith said...

oh there are so many things I would make in it. Probably chili...yum...or a great soup that has milk, cream, potatoes, bacon (bacon makes everything better), red bell peppers and other veggies in it. The veggies make you feel healthy but the milk and cream make it so scrumptious! Add a little hot sauce and it is a definate winner.

Scate said...

That looks like the PERFECT vessel for the frozen meat bones hiding in my freezer waiting to flavor water and create a wonderful homemade stock. Next, I would take the stock and make chicken noodle soup with some homemade noodles and lots of spring vegetables!

Fowie said...

Holy crap, well put a skirt on me and sign me up! I think I'd have to go with a recipe that would truly display the capabilities of this fully operational stockpot (spoken in the emperor's voice). I would definitely be making some real authentic Louisiana Jumbalaya in that puppy, whoo baby!

I would make Mexican chicken soup. I cut up white corn tortillas and they replace the noodles. It is delicious!

My Nana's homemade chicken soup, the one made with saffron. The broth is bright yellow, the chicken falls off the bone and the noodles require slurping!

Thanks for the opportunity!

I think I could go on for a while but my 5 yo is teasing my 11 mo. And I need to think of the color I want.

nonotthejacket said...

What a great giveaway! I would make "muddle" something my grandmother's made forever, which my mother also makes and I need to figure out how to do myself. It's basically a kitchen-sink-type soup, to use up the every-thing-that's-left in your pantry. It's got chicken, tomatoes, carrots, potatoes, green beans, corn, etc. One of my favorite soups!

ABCD Diaries said...

Mmmmm...Loaded Baked Potato Soup:) Thanks!
christinbanda@yahoo.com

MamaDonna said...

This would be my incentive to get my grandma's Italian Wedding Soup recipe and make some in it. Hhmm, who could I share that recipe with or make some soup for when she come into town.....

Brandon and Erica said...

I would make Beef Stew!!!

JC said...

I would make my family favorite, Chicken and Dumplings. I need this pot to make it even more beautiful. Thanks.

Natalie said...

Anything would taste good if you made it in such a pretty pan!!:) But, I DO love potato soup!

Shanicherie said...

I have been dying to get ANYTHING Le Creuset since I can't even remember, but can never seem to justify spending the moolah! I would LOVE to make Potato Leek Soup, or a great Chicken and Rice soup. Yummm...

Sue said...

If you choose me you will get to use it!

Kar said...

I have never wanted to win a give-a-way so bad. I would make rice or something. Honestly, I don't know what you use a crock pot for, but it's so pretty, I would learn all about it if it meant I could have it.

Janeen said...

Whit - U are aaammmaaazzziiinnnggg!

gina said...

AWHHHH! I want this so bad I can taste it! I would make calico beans. I have to borrow my sisters pot whenever I make them!

http://ginasfavoriterecipes.blogspot.com/search?q=calico+beans

THANKS

Jessica said...

Mikel said...

Awesome! I would make a double batch of a cream of asparagus soup that we all love!

Emily said...

Whit, look at you go! It's barely even noon and you already have 93 comments!
Well, I probably won't win the stock pot anyways, but if I did, I would definitely make something super easy like noodles, and I would leave all the fancy stuff to Jashe- he's way better than me any day.

Emily said...

Or I would make lots and lots of cake filling.

Jaime said...

I would make my famous white bean chili with lime soup - delish!

Rena said...

Megan said...

I LOVE anything Le Creuset! I would make my great aunt's best homemade chicken noodle soup recipe in here. It cooks all day long on the stove top and would come out looking beautiful in this!

Leona said...

I would love to have this pot! I would make stews/soups all winter long. But the first thing I would use it for is making jam. I love strawberry jam and every year I make a big batch. This would make it much easier. :)

Ashlee said...

The real question is... what WOULDN'T You make in that pot?

I would probably start with my mother in law's red and white bean minestrone. It's the best darm recipe this side of the mighty mississip'. It's your basic good-for-the-soul minestrone but the secret that makes it so utterly divine is serving it with a bit of fresh pesto and parmesan to stir into the goodness...

Oh I can smell it now...

Yay for giveaways!

Michele said...

Thank you for the great giveaway! I'd make a hearty chicken noodle soup or a big pot of chili!

Carolyn G said...

Definitely soups especiallly chicken noodle soup. I would also like to use this to make some BBQ pork!

Colleen Kuerth : Truly Noted said...

OMG! This is my dream pot! What wouldn't I make in it? Homemade chicken noodle, lobster bisque, roasted pumpkin soup, broccoli and cheddar soup, cheddar ale soup, turkey soup provencal, minestrone,......

Carina said...

What would I cook?
Chicken n dumplings
Mulligatawny
Succulent beef stew
Braised lamb with root vegetables
Pot lasagna - my husband's favorite
Beef short rib
Coq au vin
Seven cornish hens with lemon
CRAB BOIL
I CAN'T STOP THINKING OF WHAT I'D COOK.

We may be in trouble...

Ashley said...

oh it's so pretty! I'd definitely make my mom's potato cheese soup...ah, comfort food!

Amy said...

What I would give to make my Mexican Corn Chowder in that beautiful pot. :-) I'm sure I could think of other things, but you asked for one and that popped in my head...I love cilantro!

Ashley said...

Awesome! I would make Crawfish and Corn Chowder. It's a family recipe, spicy, and delicious!

Rachel said...

One thing? Or EVERYTHING? That pot would make me the coolest chef mommy in town. From boiled eggs to soup for the family to Christmas Eve Cioppino. I would probably use it everyday. Mostly so I could tell people how cool it is to win a beautiful pot on the Internet. LOVE My NEW POT ALREADY!

Unknown said...

I would make things like Chicken and Dumplings, Broccoli and Cheese Soup, Chili and Chicken Vegetable Soup.

Jamie said...

I don't know what I would make in it (come on Whitney you know I don't cook) But if I had something like that to cook in maybe I would start!! And you could come over and give me cooking lessons!! Ryan would be SO HAPPY!

malleycc said...

kthom said...

Soup...and lots of it. Minestrone, Broc and cheese, creamy chicken corn chowder....endless options!!

Heather said...

I think that is the prettiest piece of cookware I would ever own. Do I have to cook in it? Can I turn it into art and hang it on the wall? I think that glorious pot is deserving of homemade chicken noodle soup - I picture myself ladling bowls of hearty goodness out of it to my little boy and husband.

Brooke said...

Guinness Stew.... mmmm that would be lovely cooking in there... OR some homemade chicken soup...

Lori said...

I would make homemade spaghetti sauce, chicken tortilla soup, butternut squash soup, white chili,and so many more things. I think I would use this pot everyday. It has been on my wish list for awhile!

Love your blog Rookie!!

elizabeth said...

I have never wanted something more in my entire life (materially speaking - cause I am a material girl).

I think I would work on perfecting my stock even though it sounds cliche since this is a "stock" pot and all. then, I would make my favorite chicken noodle soup every day with it with homemade noodles because it's so good with perfect stock.

Rashel said...

I would make stone soup in honor of my two year old's favorite story.

deb said...

Well flip! I am really digging cooking these days and I would make tortilla soup in it, but experiment with ingredients. Because if I had an awesome piece of cookware like that experimentation in the food sense is what you do.

deborah.a.sorensen@gmail.com

Jenna said...

My email is hippeemommy@gmail.com, I posted up above about creating memories with my girls and soups and a good pot I can't afford. Figured you probably wanted emails and I forgot to leave mine.

I would make potato soup to take to work.

For my family, I would make a huge pot roast with veggies.

Jen said...

I would make a hearty beef stew to feed my family!

Stephanie said...

I would make creamy potato soup - my favorite. But I am a soup freak, so I would probably use it every day!

Whitney Kaye said...

Let's be honest here, I'd probably make playdough or something that can explode and cause a huge. . . HOT. . . food fight!

Joanna said...

I would LOVE to get this! It would definitely inspire me to cook SOMETHING! My husband was the family cook for the first 11 1/2 years of our marriage, but has now turned over the reins to me and I'm terrified. I could whip up a mean batch of some kind of fantastic soup in this!!! Pick me!

What a great stockpot! I would make my "healthy" version of mac and cheese soup or it would also be great when I have to make mashed potatoes for Thanksgiving (I always get assigned to bring those and have to boil the potatoes in 2 different pots because I don't have one big enough!)

Krista said...

oh i would make me some good 'ol Lowcountry Boil ... the meal I miss most from my South Carolina home.

just need some Atlantic Blue-claw Crab, Corn on the Cob, Sausage, Fresh Shrimp, and Old Bay Seasoning ...

No silverware. No plates. Just some newspaper placemats, your fingers, and the delights of the sea.

Nothin says southern like a Lowcountry Boil. mm mmm.

Aubrey said...

What would I make in this?

What WOULDN'T I make in this?

I'd eat my cereal and milk out of it for breakfast, creamy asparagus soup for lunch, and a whole lotta pasta for dinner.

Plus, on a cold dreary day like today, I'd make 6 quarts of hot chocolate....and MAYBE share with friends and neighbors!

The first time I made Albondiga soup, I sent it with my son Andrew for lunch. When he was dropped off from school, he ran in the house, threw his backpack, and said "where is it?" Curious, I asked what he was looking so feverishly through the fridge for he said- those "amazing meat things I had for lunch. "Oh, the soup I said," he replied "no those meatballs." So, I would make Andrew his meatballs. Albondiga Soup.

I would love this pot. I would all kinds of things in it. I think I would make a big bot of Chili first.

Jeana Bird said...

I would make chicken noodle soup! Thanks!

Thrifty and Thriving said...

Gad-zooks! You have 182 comments! That is insane! People want that pot. I will only accept the pot if you show me how to use it,cause you know my mother. I will never learn how.

Veronica said...

Wow! What a great giveaway to make it my first entry! The first thing I would make would be a huge batch of spaghetti sauce to freeze like I usually do. Then maybe clam chowder, especially on days like today, so rainy and grey... (Love your site)

rachelsaysso said...

That's my color and everything!

Definitely chicken and dumplings. Heavy on the dumplings.

ray-ray says said...

oooo...!!!

forget about cooking! i would bathe my babies in that beautiful pot!

Jenifer said...

First I would just look at it and admire it, then I'd make some creamy chicken with wild rice soup!

kristib said...

I'd make some chipotle chicken tortilla soup- so delicious!

Meg's comment made me laugh.

You girls are saucy.

MaRiN said...

mmmm. swiss steak! or maybe even some nice homemade chili. possibilities are endless!

JAM said...

Ooh, I want one! In blue please!

JAM said...

I would make chicken dumpling soup! Yum!!

cat+tadd=sam said...

I was just about to say "never seen as many exclamation points in my life", but then I read Meg's comment, and she pretty much summed up exactly what I wish I'd said.

rabidrunner said...

I cannot, or better yet, will not, compete with 192 others. But just in case:

I've been answering tax questions for 3 months. I'm done. So with this pot, I'd print all of my answers onto recycled 8.5 x 11, put 'em in the pot, fill the spaces with H20 and boil for 8 frickin hours.

I thought about printing the IRS instruction booklets, but decided that it would not fit in 192 pots - even if I had 'em.

Who's judging this, by way? Please say Megan. She likes me.

Rachel said...

Definitely a loaded baked potato soup--I've been itching to make a couple new soup recipes,so this pot would come in quite handy!

A Reader said...

I would make a bunch of pasta and heat some sauce for spaghetti and meatballs.
Thanks for the giveaway!

I love that color! If I had one I think I would make chicken noodle soup. I have nothing to make it in and this would be great! my2littlepiggies at cox dot net

Jordan said...

Looks great! I would make a fabulous tomato sauce in it.

Janeen said...

Megan and Cat you to just crack me up! It is true it is a only a pot, but a fantastic one at that!

sarah jerger said...

Oh, how beautiful! I would make the new recipe I saw on Rachael Ray the other day - Lemon Garlic Chicken Noodle Soup.... Yum!

Dawn said...

What wouldn't I make in that is a better question. I would definitely make my mom's chili in this. What a great giveaway.

Jill and Mark said...

Oh my goodness. I have to pick just ONE thing to make? If I could, I'd make a whole meal! Spanish saffron paella for sure. Sigh...yummy cookwear, yummy food...what don't you do Rookie Cookie? ;)
