Question 1

How long to cook chicken noodle soup?

Accepted Answer

The cooking time depends on the type of soup being made and the cooking method used. Generally, you need to bring the soup to a boil and then reduce the heat. Simmer for 5-8 minutes or until chicken is cooked through. Then add the noodles and cook until al dente for about 10 minutes.

Question 2

Is chicken noodle soup as healthy as people say it is?

Accepted Answer

Chicken noodle soup is, indeed, healthy. In addition to packing a protein punch, it also contains a number of vitamins and minerals, as well as fiber and amino acids, all of which support your immune system.

Question 3

Do you pre cook noodles for chicken soup?

Accepted Answer

You dont have to pre cook noodles for chicken soup, but you can if you want to avoid over-cooking them or making the broth cloudy. If youre making a soup where the appearance of the broth is obvious, you may want to cook your noodles al dente before stirring them into the broth at the very end of your cooking time.

Question 4

How to avoid leaving an oil slick on the top of your soup?

Accepted Answer

As the soup simmers, you’ll notice a layer of grease develop around the outer edges of the pot. It’s totally natural and unavoidable. This comes from the fat from the meat, as well as the oil used to sauté the vegetables, and rises to the top of the pot as the soup cooks. You can skim off some of this fat with a spoon or ladle before serving.

Question 5

How do I freeze chicken noodle soup (with or without noodles)?

Accepted Answer

To freeze chicken noodle soup (with or without noodles), pour serving-sized portions of cooled soup into freezer bags labeled with date. Freeze for up to six months. Re-heat on stove.

Question 6

When does Chicken Noodle Soup expire?

Accepted Answer

Unopened canned Chicken Noodle Soup can be kept in the pantry for 2-5 years past the printed date. Once opened, the soup should be eaten within 3 to 4 days if stored in the refrigerator. If you've made homemade chicken noodle soup, it's best to consume it within 3-4 days, but can be stored in the freezer for up to 6 months.

Question 7

How do you tell if Chicken Noodle Soup is bad?

Accepted Answer

If the canned soup is expired or the can is swollen or leaking, don’t use it. For both store-bought and homemade soup, check for any change in the smell, color, or texture. If the soup smells sour, has a slimy texture, or has visible mold, it's time to throw it away. Also, if you have any doubt about its safety, remember the kitchen rule: when in doubt, throw it out.
