It took me 37 years to realize you could just pour cold water into soup to cool it down for a child.

I had only ever done it with an ice cube before, but we don’t typically have ice in the house.

I have to guess/assume (guessume?) that doing it with an ice cube and then removing the remainder when the soup is at a kid-friendly temperature ends up diluting the soup less… even if that's not true it sounds reasonable enough to be why our parents did it that way

@levisan that makes sense. It definitely dilutes the soup a bit more than I remember doing with an ice cube, but my two boys are young enough that it doesn’t bother them at all.
