Tinkyada Pasta In Soup?

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

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.

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.

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.

      Draft gluten-free ciders… can they be trusted ?

      By Rejoicephd · Posted

      That and my nutritionist also said that drinking cider is one of the worst drink choices for me, given that I have candida overgrowth.  She said the combination of the alcohol and sugar would be very likely to worsen my candida problem.  She suggested that if I drink, I go for clear vodka, either neat or with a splash of cranberry.   So in summary, I am giving ciders a rest.  Whether it's a gluten risk or sugars and yeast overgrowth, its just not worth it.

      Tea Bags and Gluten

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While plain, pure tea leaves (black, green, or white) are naturally gluten-free, the issue often lies not with the tea itself but with other ingredients or processing. Many flavored teas use barley malt or other gluten-containing grains as a flavoring agent, which would be clearly listed on the ingredient label. Cross-contamination is another possibility, either in the facility where the tea is processed or, surprisingly, from the tea bag material itself—some tea bags are sealed with a wheat-based glue. Furthermore, it's important to consider that your reaction could be to other substances in tea, such as high levels of tannins, which can be hard on the stomach, or to natural histamines or other compounds that can cause a non-celiac immune response. The best way to investigate is to carefully read labels for hidden ingredients, try switching to a certified gluten-free tea brand that uses whole leaf or pyramid-style bags, and see if the reaction persists.

      Inconclusive results

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      This is a challenging and confusing situation. The combination of a positive EMA—which is a highly specific marker rarely yielding false positives—alongside strongly elevated TTG on two separate occasions, years apart, is profoundly suggestive of celiac disease, even in the absence of biopsy damage. This pattern strongly aligns with what is known as "potential celiac disease," where the immune system is clearly activated, but intestinal damage has not yet become visible under the microscope. Your concern about the long-term risk of continued gluten consumption is valid, especially given your family's experience with the consequences of delayed diagnosis. Since your daughter is now at an age where her buy-in is essential for a gluten-free lifestyle, obtaining a definitive answer is crucial for her long-term adherence and health. Given that she is asymptomatic yet serologically positive, a third biopsy now, after a proper 12-week challenge, offers the best chance to capture any microscopic damage that may have developed, providing the concrete evidence needed to justify the dietary change. This isn't about wanting her to have celiac; it's about wanting to prevent the insidious damage that can occur while waiting for symptoms to appear, and ultimately giving her the unambiguous "why" she needs to accept and commit to the necessary treatment. This article might be helpful. It breaks down each type of test, and what a positive results means in terms of the probability that you might have celiac disease. One test that always needs to be done is the IgA Levels/Deficiency Test (often called "Total IGA") because some people are naturally IGA deficient, and if this is the case, then certain blood tests for celiac disease might be false-negative, and other types of tests need to be done to make an accurate diagnosis. The article includes the "Mayo Clinic Protocol," which is the best overall protocol for results to be ~98% accurate.

      Medication

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Welcome to the community! Generally, for a gluten challenge before celiac disease blood tests, Tylenol (acetaminophen) is considered safe and should not interfere with your antibody results. The medications you typically need to avoid are those like ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin) or naproxen (Aleve) that can cause intestinal irritation, which could potentially complicate the interpretation of an endoscopy if you were to have one. However, it is absolutely crucial that you confirm this with either your gastroenterologist or your surgeon before your procedure. They know the specifics of your case and can give you the definitive green light, ensuring your surgery is comfortable and your celiac testing remains accurate. Best of luck with your surgery tomorrow
