Pot of food

A deep pot of soup or stew with steam rising. It means warm comfort food: chili, stew, soup, hot pot and slow-cooked meals.

Cold days and sick days call for it, often with 🥣 or 🥶. Friends use it to plan a hot-pot dinner, and parents post it when a big pot is on the stove for the week.

Not the same as 🥘, which is a shallow pan like paella.
