Tinkyada Pasta In Soup?

Recommended Posts

I was wondering if anyone was tried the Tinkyada pasta in soup? When I first went gluten-free- I made a big patch of veggie soup and used rice pasta- which did not hold up. I turned my back and all the liquid was gone and the pasta fell apart. The tinkyada pasta is so much more like the real thing..and seems a little tougher but I wasn't sure it would survive in soup. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated!

I have not tried Tinkyada in soup, but Mrs. Leepers Alphabet pasta works very well.

I haven't tried it either, but if you use it, I would undercook it a little to account for the extra liquid it will absorb.

Ancient harvest corn/quinoa pasta is also good in soup as it's a bit hardier.

I use it fairly often in soups or stews. the trick is to cook it in a different pot and have it ready to add to the soup just before serving. I also find that I dont cook it as long as it says and rinse it quickly with warm water before adding it to the soup.

Good luck

I do it the same as ken and use it quite frequently.

Thanks so much for all the advice!

Have you tried freezing the soup after you make it...how does it turn out when defrosted and re-heated? I ask because that is what I used to do with normal pasta. I usually make a big batch at a time to save time later on. Thanks again.

It works for me!!! I have my own recipe for soup, i dont even know what you'd call it haha. Something I created off the top of my head. And throwing the noodles in there has held it together good.

Tinkyada is the only pasta I buy, so I could be biased ;)

I use the tinkyada in soups all the timer. If I am going to freeze the soup - I take what I am going to freeze before I add any pasta.... Then when I thaw the soup and reheat it - I add the pasta at that time. I have found it loses texture once frozen.

Thanks! I'll try that next time.

I have used the glutino egg-type noodles in soup, i thought they were as good if not better then what i usually used - they keep their texture very nicely and taste great!

Mrs. Leepers alphabet noodles have changed, and not for the better. The old ones looked just like regular alphabet noodles, but I bought a case of them from Amazon because I couldn't find them in stores any more, and the noodles are much bigger and break up into tiny pieces once you stir the soup. At that price I'll keep using them, but I'll think bad thoughts about Mrs. Leeper when I do.

Oh no--that's not good to hear....

I like this too for a change.

I always cook more spag than needed.

put in snack storage bags and freeze.

i defrost the frozen soup. nuke the frozen pasta for 15 seconds and add to the soup and it holds it's texture and holds up well.

      Looking for help sourcing gluten-free products that do not contain potato or corn derived ingredients. I have other autoimmune conditions (Psoriatic Arthritis and Sjogrens) so I’m looking for prepared foods as I have fatigue and cannot devote a lot of time to baking my own treats.

      I am so sorry you're going through this. It's completely understandable to feel frustrated, stressed, and disregarded after such a long and difficult health journey. It's exhausting to constantly advocate for yourself, especially when you're dealing with so many symptoms and positive diagnoses like SIBO, while still feeling unwell. The fact that you have been diligently following the diet without relief is a clear sign that something else is going on, and your doctors should be investigating other causes or complications, not dismissing your very real suffering.

      It is just so sad that health care in the United States has come to this.  Health insurance should be available to everyone, not just the healthy or the rich.  My heart goes out to you.  I would not hesitate to have the test and pay for it myself.  My big concern would be how you could keep the results truly private.  I am sure that ultimately, you could not.  A.I. is getting more and more pervasive, and all data is available somewhere.  I don't know if you could give a fake name, or pay for your test with cash.  I certainly would not disclose any positive results on a private insurance application.  As I understand it, for an official diagnosis, an MD needs to review your labs and make the call.  If you end up in the ER, or some other situation, just request a gluten free diet, and say it is because you feel better when you don't eat gluten.      Hang in there, though.  Medicare is not that far away for you, and it will remove a lot of stress from your health care concerns.  You will even be able to "come out of the closet" about being Celiac!

      Yes, I've posted a few times about two companies: Request a Test and Ulta Labs. Also, pretty much we can all request any test we want (with the possible exception of the N protein Covid test and I'm sure a couple of others) with Lab Corp (or Pixel by Lab Corp) and Quest. I much prefer Lab Corp for their professionalism, ease of service and having it together administratively, at least in DC. And just so you know, Request a Test uses Lab Corp and Quest anyway, while Ulta Labs uses only Quest. Ulta Labs is cheaper than Request a Test, but I am tired of dealing with Quest, so I don't use them so much.

      PS - I think you meant this site, but I don't believe it has been updated in years: http://glutenfreedrugs.com/ so it is best to use: You can search this site for prescriptions medications, but will need to know the manufacturer/maker if there is more than one, especially if you use a generic version of the medication: To see the ingredients you will need to click on the correct version of the medication and maker in the results, then scroll down to "Ingredients and Appearance" and click it, and then look at "Inactive Ingredients," as any gluten ingredients would likely appear there, rather than in the Active Ingredients area. https://dailymed.nlm.nih.gov/dailymed/
