Tip
Refrigerate Chicken Soup without Noodles
When I make my favorite chicken noodle soup, I find it tastes better if I refrigerate the soup without the noodles. When it's time to serve, I add the noodles to the amount of soup I'm going to use and cook them until tender. —Martha Dimitch, Nineveh, Indiana
