Step 1: Gather 37 exotic ingredients from around the world. Don't bother with a list, just Google it.

Step 2: Spend an entire afternoon watching YouTube videos of professional chefs making simple soups. Learn nothing.

Step 3: Create a 20-page, 300-page, 3000-page business plan for your soup. Call it a "Soupreneur" business plan.

Step 4: Realize your soup's flavor profile has changed 47 times in the last 5 minutes and start over.

Step 5: Call a meeting with your soup to negotiate its flavor profile and ingredient list. Don't forget the snacks.

Step 6: Add 17 extra layers of complexity, including a surprise ingredient that will 'blow the soup's mind'.

Step 7: Realize you're 37 minutes late for the soup's 'Taste Test Party' and serve it in a trash can with a 'surprise' garnish.

Step 8: Blame the soup for its failure to impress and vow to never make it again.

Step 9: Start a new soup, this time with 47 ingredients, and repeat the process.
