Zero Noodles!

Instead I just cut out most carbs and I do eat pasta on occastion just smaller portions. my co-worker does whole weat.

I have tried them many times with different sauces and toppings and I always drain and rinse thoroughly first as directed on the package but they still taste disgusting!

I eat them and have found that you MUST rinse them for 5 min in cold water then put them in a non stick pan and pan fry them dry. They take on the flavor of any sauce that you put on them.

A good subsitute for pasta and I get mine at the local Sprouts store.

This!! Skirataki noodles are FANTASTIC with a sauce because they do take on the flavor of the sauce. DON'T eat them alone though as they taste a little weird plain

EDIT: Another good low-calorie noodle substitute is ZUCCHINI!!! Use either a vegetable peeler or a knife to get them in noodle shapes. Or if you have a spiralizer, even better! It's really delicious, actually I made a raw fettucine alfredo with them as pictured in my main photo on my profile. Let me know if you want the recipe!

I had them for the first time tonight, added them to some chicken stew. I liked them, they're not pasta ish but they are noodle ish!

I will buy them again and also want to try the rice too.

I used half a pack and have kept the other half in it's packet in the fridge, will use them up tomorrow.

Love those shirataki noodles. I make some awesome stir fry's with them. Wash them really well. Then cook them on a high heat-pan with no oil, this drys them out. Then I add them to my stir fry. YUM! :smooched:

I've tried them before - I think you could definately siphon a portion out and keep the packet in the fridge - not for a long time - couple of days most.

You need to rinse them out well and dry fry them until they squeak like tiny little mice. Then you put your sauce on them and they are still flipping vile (sorry)

Some people swear by them, but eating them just made me very sad about my life so I stopped.

Also they absorb water like a mother which is why I think they give people stomach aches - also they are pretty much all fibre (I think) so you should have some interesting bowel movements

Just made these yesterday, and I have to say they turned out better than expected! The key is to wash them really well and let them simmer in a good sauce for a while so you lose the fishy flavor. I prepared the whole 1 lb bag, added lotus root and turkey meatballs, and let that simmer in a sauce of composed of miso paste, teriyaki, ground ginger, onion powder, chili powder, lime juice, and sriracha. I divided the whole thing into two portions and added slivers of roasted carrots and broccoli as a topper. Om nom nom!

I LOVE shirataki noodles and often eat the whole package at once. That said, they need to be prepared. Drain & rinse them thoroughly under hot water for a few minutes in a strainer to get rid of that fishy smell. Then pat them dry. Throw them in a pan with oil or sauce and they will take on whatever flavor you give them.

40 calories for 8 oz. versus, what? 200 per oz of pasta? I can't even count that high.

P.S. I prefer the fettuccine style.

^^. I use them as well and love them
