Sausage and Vermicelli Soup - FAQ About Ingredients, Baking Time and Storage

Can I use a different type of pasta instead of vermicelli?

Yes, you can substitute vermicelli with other small pasta shapes like orzo, small shells, or even broken-up spaghetti. Just adjust the cooking time according to the pasta you choose, as cooking times can vary.

How should I store leftovers, and how long will they last?

Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat thoroughly on the stovetop or in the microwave, adding a splash of water or broth if the soup has thickened too much.

Can I make this soup vegetarian?

Absolutely! To make it vegetarian, simply omit the sausage and use a plant-based sausage alternative. Use vegetable broth instead of water for more flavor. You might also want to add some chopped mushrooms or a bit of soy sauce for a savory, 'meaty' flavor.

Can I freeze this soup?

Yes, but with a caveat. Freeze it without the potatoes, as they can become grainy and unpleasant when thawed. If you've already added them, it's still possible, but the texture of the potatoes and pasta may change, becoming a bit softer. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight and reheat gently on the stovetop.

Can I make this soup spicier?

Yes! For more heat, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a few dashes of hot sauce (like Tabasco) along with the paprika in step 7. You could also add a small, finely chopped chili pepper (like a jalapeño or serrano) when you fry the onions in step 8.

Can I use pre-cooked sausage?

Yes, you can use pre-cooked sausage. Since it's already cooked, you can add it directly in step 10 when you add the rest of the fried vegetable mixture to the soup, just to heat it through. This will prevent it from getting too tough or overcooked.

Can I make this soup gluten-free?

Yes! To make this soup gluten-free, ensure your sausage is gluten-free (many are, but check the label). Then, simply substitute the vermicelli with a gluten-free pasta of a similar size, like a small gluten-free pasta shape or even some brown rice vermicelli. Just be sure to check all your ingredient labels.
