Ingredients
3 tablespoons butter
1 yellow onion diced
2 celery stalks diced
2 carrots diced (about 1 cup)
Salt and pepper to taste
3-4 garlic cloves minced
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
½ cup all-purpose flour
6 cups water
6 teaspoons better than bouillon paste
2 cups heavy cream
11 ounces egg noodles
1 cup frozen green peas
2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley optional
Instructions
Add butter and chopped onions to a large pot and cook for about 10 minutes over medium heat until onions soften and start to get lightly brown. Add the celery and carrots to the pot. Season with a small amount of salt and pepper. Cook for 10 minutes. Add the minced garlic and cook for 1 more minute.
Stir in the seasonings and the flour and cook for a couple minutes to cook out the raw flour taste. It will be very thick and that’s ok.
Slowly stir in the water, bouillon paste, and then the heavy cream. Increase the temperature to high and let it come to a boil.
Add in the egg noodles and give everything a good stir. Put the lid on, reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 12-15 minutes or until the noodles are cooked through.
Stir in the peas and fresh parsley. Taste for salt and pepper, adding if needed.
Notes
Store leftover soup in the fridge in an airtight container for 3-4 days.
The leftovers will thicken as the noodles will continue to soak in the liquid. Add in some water, broth, or milk if you want them soupier, or just eat them more like a pasta dish
Reheat the leftovers in the microwave or on the stove over low heat.
I don’t recommend freezing this soup as cream-based noodle soups tend to change texture when frozen.
