  4. about 10 minutes before soup is done simmering, make pasta according to package directions for al dente. drain and rinse
  5. i keep pasta separated until ready to serve, and then add desired amount to each bowl to prevent it from soaking up too much of the soups' liquid. if you have leftover soup, just toss the pasta with a teeny bit of olive oil and store in a ziploc baggie, and add to soup as needed
