Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Ok, I found the Shirataki noodles at Sunrise Asian Market in Eugene. Now I need to know what to do with them. I bought the yam noodles and the tofu. The tofu looks more like spaghetti, so I will treat it as such and probably just use a sauce with a tomato base, but the way the yam noodle looks, I don't think I will be able to get my client to eat them. How have all of you used them? Thanks Cindy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 Rinse in a colander (they do have a scent until you rinse them), I cook in microwave for one minuter, drain any excess water off and put sauce on and cook in microwave 40 more seconds.

Guest guest Posted September 17, 2009 Report Share Posted September 17, 2009 I use them all the time and they are delicious:) There are different types of noodles, fettuccine, angel hair, etc. You do not treat them like regular pasta. They do have an odor if they are the thicker ones, and their texture is chewier. Rinse them thoroughly. Then you put them in the microwave for 1 minute.Take them out and blot dry on paper towels (careful they are hot!). If you microwave them again for 30-45 secs they will release a little more water. Dry again with the paper towels. Add to an already made sauce that is hot in a pan and let them soak up the flavors for about 5 minutes. The texture changes to a much softer noodle and the odor dissipates. I love to use these in coconut curry sauce. Enjoy! --- On Thu, 9/17/09, cindylj7 <cindylj7 wrote: cindylj7 <cindylj7 Shirataki noodles Thursday, September 17, 2009, 8:57 AM Ok, I found the Shirataki noodles at Sunrise Asian Market in Eugene.
