Alkaline noodles, which may contain the following ingredients, are used by manufacturers of canned noodle soups:
Initial pH of commercial alkaline noodles is typically between 9 and 11, depending on the salts used. The pH will drop to roughly 7 to 8 after retort processing due to the formation of acidic Maillard reaction products during heating in the presence of reducing sugars. 5. Lysine and glutamine, two amino acids involved in cross-linking reactions, are what cause the pH to drop and the alkaline noodles containing Hylon to turn yellow.
Ive been looking up canning, as I suspected it had much to do with the process of noodles not absorbing all the water. Ive found this tangentially related post and quoting:
I have also found this very interesting set of ideas:
On an article about partial cooking which has some good ideas on par-cooking. I suspect this, combined with the above factors, as well as vacuum-sealed canning, is what allows for noodles, and vegetables/potatoes, to not absorb all the liquid.
If you want to learn more, I’ve located a study by the American Association of Cereal Chemists that focuses specifically on the subject of noodles’ ability to absorb liquid:
I had the same question tonight. Looking at Campbell’s Chicken Noodle Soup’s ingredients, I’m making the assumption that using egg noodles in place of pasta might help. The sugar in the broth may also play a role, in addition to the citric acid already mentioned. Sugar is crucial for the preservation of jams and jellies because it attracts water to itself. By doing so, you could keep some of the broth’s liquid from seeping into the noodles. Salt does the same thing. Perhaps this explains why canned soup has such high salt and sugar content.
They use a high alkaline noodle…. When cooked, the noodle acquires a “slippery” coating that prevents the noodle from absorbing broth.

I like how the flavor of the broth seeps into the noodles; why stop that when it’s this good? I boil the noodles in broth so that it does get inside of them, so Makata is right.
In all the restaurants I’ve worked in, we’ve always kept the pasta separate. Simply cook the pasta, toss it with a little oil, and then chill it in an airtight container. Pour a small amount of hot soup over pasta in your bowl. No need to reheat pasta.
How can I prevent the noodles from soaking up the entire broth after dividing it between containers and chilling?
In my mid-twenties, I hosted a dinner party. The main dish was Greek spaghetti and meatballs. Anyway, by the time the visitors left, I was too exhausted to do the dishes, so I just quickly rinsed them and put them aside. There were still a few dried noodles at the bottom of the pot where I cooked the spaghetti when I went to wash them in the morning. My fingernails, which I typically used to scape food particles, had just been drastically shortened.
Additionally, some claim that pasta is frequently substituted with egg noodles. Egg noodles dont absorb as much water.
Do you put pasta in cold water after cooking?
Pasta salad: After cooking, pasta should always be rinsed if it’s going to be a cold salad. … Rinsing the pasta in cold water lowers its temperature, which is undesirable when eating it hot, but is acceptable in this case because the pasta will be served cold. It also keeps the pasta loose for the salad.
When cooking pasta, should you cover the pot? When you’re waiting for the water to boil, you can cover the pot. But once the water begins to boil and you add the pasta, you should take the lid off to stop the water from overflowing.
FAQ
How do I keep my noodles from getting soggy in my soup?
Take note of this advice: When adding noodles to soup, do so just before turning off the stove. Add the noodles when the soup is almost done, then simmer them until they are about halfway cooked. The pasta will continue to cook due to the soup’s residual heat.
How do noodles stay good in canned soup?
Similar to fresh noodles, canned soup noodles have a high alkaline pH to prevent mushy noodles when heated in hot broth.
How do you keep noodles firm?
Make sure the cooking water is at a full boil before adding the pasta to avoid soft, mushy pasta. Additionally, be sure to maintain a constant boil throughout the entire cooking period.
Can you can soup with noodles in it?
Cans can be used to store vegetable, dried bean or pea, meat, poultry, or seafood soups. The USDA advises against thickening home canned soups with noodles, other pastas, rice, flour, cream, or other substances. Noodles, other pasta and rice will become mushy.
