Shirataki Noodles

BigRolliePollie · 02-15-2013, 04:31 PM

Hi I was just wondering if anyone has any information or insight on shirataki noodles?

Do a search there is a lot of info on making your own noodles......recipes, tools, and techniques.

I prefer Sea Tangle, search it, they're nummy!! And I noticed Netrition has them now!!

Ntombi · 02-15-2013, 05:26 PM

There are tons and tons of threads talking about them. Tons.

I followed the recommendations on one of the threads to use shura take noodles for home made pho! It was SO nice to have noodles in my soup!

Sea tangle sounds good but at $4 a pound I have a lot of other options also gluc noodles can be made at home.

I have just started trying these. Rinse, sit, rinse, sit, rinse. I like mine with a sauce on top. Actually, I add it to crack and it is fantastic. I really like it. I can get it locally where it is 1 carb or off the net for zero carbs. Either way, I find it a good addition to my cupboard. I decided that it is very accommodating. I put white sauce on it. The rago cheese sauce with meat balls and these is especially decadent. Enjoy them.

I just had them for the first time last week (after years of hearing how wonderful they are), and I really liked them. The ones I got at the Natural Grocers (House Foods brand) have 3 carbs per serving. I used them in spagetti and was pleasantly surprised at their taste and texture. They did need a good rinsing though, because they have a fishy odor when you take them out of the package.

What kind of texture does Sea Tangle noodle have. Is it close to Shirataki? I have a hard time with the texture of Shirataki noodles, ESP the fetaccini noodles.

fozzie99 · 02-16-2013, 08:24 AM

Try making some at home the homemade noodles have a better texture. The noodles with the higher carbs are prob. have tofu added.

These are all good tid bits to know, thank you. I am especially glad to have known about the fishy Oder in advance!
