Notes
Top tips
- Stir the pasta as it cooks - The pasta cooks in limited liquid, so stirring occasionally prevents sticking.
- Adjust thickness if needed - Add more water or broth if you want a thinner soup.
- Use as little as 8 oz. of pasta for this, especially if you want it to be more like soup.
- Leftovers note- This soup is thick, and the pasta will continue to absorb liquid as it sits. When reheating, add a splash of water or broth to loosen it back up. If you know you’ll want leftovers that stay more soup-like, you can cook the pasta separately and add it when reheating, but that does add an extra step.
