Soups are consumed worldwide. We are aware of clam chowder, Tomato soup, sweet corn chicken soup, and traditional mutton soups.
Other than this there are many types and specialties of soups available. Some soups are common worldwide and some of them are still famous only in particular countries and they retain the traditional method.
Nowadays, we get many types of soups. When we think about hearty tomato soup, it comes in the pureed soups category. The mutton soup and the sweet corn chicken soup come in the clear soup category. Clam chowder comes in the cream/thick soup category.

How do you keep the pasta from getting mushy in soup?
Add oil to the boiling water and cook the pasta. Once the pasta is cooked, drain and rinse with room temperature water to avoid the pasta sticking to each other. Drizzle oil and keep aside.
Can you leave noodles in soup?
Add pasta only before serving the soup give it a thorough stir and serve hot. If you keep the soup for long after adding the pasta the starch will absorb the soup.
