Need to make in advance? No problem! Just cut, scoop and oil, then cover tightly and refrigerate until ready to bake (up to 12 hours). Sprinkle with salt just prior to baking (salt draws out moisture). Don't add it ahead of time!

Tip

The bowl is edible! The rind, while technically edible, isn't tasty so stick to the meat! Your guests can scoop at the insides to eat right along with the soup.
