Can I use Gluten-Free Noodles?
Yes! Make sure to follow the instructions on your preferred gluten-free noodle brand.
We’ve noticed that gluten-free noodles sometimes take a bit longer to cook to reach your desired texture. You may want to plan for that when cooking this recipe.
What broth goes best with pork?
Our recipe calls for chicken broth, but you can also use vegetable broth.
If you don’t have either of these broths on hand, substitute with chicken bouillon granules and the appropriate water ratio.
What other cuts of pork can I use for this soup?
Making use of leftover pork loin is the basis of this recipe. Don’t let the fact that you had pork chops instead of loin stop you from creating warm, savory noodles.
Ham is another cut of pork that tends to yield leftovers. If you can’t handle one more ham sandwich, dice up the ham and freeze it.
On a chilly fall afternoon, get the ham out of the freezer and warm up your kitchen in a few simple steps.
