A Love Letter

December 29, 2025 jenny

Thank you to those of you who reached out about “A Love Letter to My Dutch Oven” in the New York Times last week. (That’s a gift link if you missed it and would like to read.) The essay, about how my 5 1/2-quart enameled-steel Le Creuset watched me grow up, was a lot of fun to write, but even better were all the texts and emails I received from long-lost friends. And since apparently a 1000-word essay doesn’t seem to be sufficient, I have continued the Dutch oven conversation about over on my Substack newsletter, which is the main place you’ll find me these days. Earlier this week, I shared my Top 10 favorite Dutch oven recipes as well as the somewhat out-of-nowhere epiphany that inspired the essay. Please swing by — and if you like what you read, join the community by subscribing. Thanks so much.
