Notes
- Noodles will continue to absorb liquid if you save soup as leftovers. To prevent this, you can divide the soup and only add as many noodles as you want at that time. When you reheat the soup, simply bring the soup to a boil and cook noodles for 7-10 minutes.

- How to store: Keep leftovers in the refrigerator in a glass or plastic container for up to 3-5 days.
