If I ad pasta to soup broth, do I have to cook it seperately?
will it be too startchy if I just ad it uncooked to the broth, or should I boil it then ad it?

thanks everyone! I think I'll cook it seperatley like one of you said, because I want the broth to be the flavor, and I've only got about 3 cups.
Thanks!

I would cook the pasta separate as it will make your soup thick unless that is what you want. I usually cook the pasta then add it to the soup so that the broth is the flavor not the pasta juice.
It will thicken the soup considerably. Do you want nice thick soup? I do.
It will be fine to add the pasta uncooked but just a little or you will have a stew instead of a soup.
Usually it's best to cook the pasta separately and add it to the soup at the last minute. Pasta will absorb a lot of the broth if you cook it in the soup itself. Also, cooking the pasta separately keeps it from clumping together with other ingredients.
Add it right in if the soup gets to thick just add some stock to thin it down.
