    Sounds nice. Any ideas if it can be reheated in the microwave at work, i've done it with normal noodles and stirfry but never tried these tofu ones before (going to go hunting for some in the asian shop down the road)

    Thank you so much for sharing! I might have to look for tofu shiratake noodles at the Japanese grocery store down the street from my house (I live in Japan!!!) and try this for dinner tonight.

    I LOVE these noodles. I went on the Internet yesterday to read more about them. There were a couple things I want to share.
    1) The noodles while often found in the refrigerated area in the store don't require refrigeration if the package hasn't been opened
    2) There is an expiration date printed on the noodle packaging. If they expire, two things can happen, the noodles have an even stronger smell beyond just the mild fishy odor the noodles normally have that rinses away under hot water and they may not retain a noodle shape and pretty much dissolve when you open the package.
    3) You can't freeze these noodles. If you do they will disenigrate after thawing.
    4) There are Shirataki noodles and Tofu Shirataki noodles. Both have the same consistency and virtually the same taste and good nutrition.

    It serves two purposes:

    1) By replying to a post it shows up in your "My Topics" so you can easily find it again later.

    2) It moves the post back to the "top of the heap" so others can more easily see it. So, in a sense, you're saying, "I want to keep this at the top of the list because I think it's a good post and other's should read it."

    Chelle, I gotta tell ya, You made my night!

    I live in Delaware so anyone in the NJ, PA, DE or MD vicinity can get these at either Giant Foods or Harris Teeter. HT had them ON SALE for 2/$5 Yippee! I got some fresh sprouts and raced home...

    So I assembled my sauce before hand. I really thinned mine out. I used Rooster sauce 'cuz I had it on hand. You could easily sub green Thai chili paste *or* green Thai chili paste and I'm sure it would be yummy. Pad Thai, as well.

    I cut back considerably on the chicken bouillon (only used 1 t) and used low sodium soy sauce. I had Mrs. Dash garlic and herb on hand. I also had a ton of baby slice portebellas and know how meaty and filling THEY are, so tossed in about a 1/2 cup of those.

    Oh my!

    They definitely have the mouth feel of a noodle. I would say they are slightly chewy and sort of reminded me of calamari (which I like). I rinsed them really well before putting them in the pan so I really didn't have that fishy smell.

    I can't finish the bowl! LOL. I seriously cannot get all this down (I do have the Realize Band). But still. Wow. That is a LOT of food!

    Gotta say I'm so thrilled to have discovered how yummy bean sprouts are in such a simple meal. I really have to eat them more often.

    Thanks so much for taking the time to share this with us!

    xoxo

    I really need to make this. I've totally cut noodles out of my menu planning, but think I can add these kind of noodles back in. Thanks for sharing the recipe!

    I am just finishing a bowl of my variation of this recipe for lunch.

    My variation, (if I may):

    I use 2 packages of the noodles
    I go with 1/2 sprouts and 1/2 snow peas
    I add celery
    I also add boneless, skinless chicken breast chunks (I'm a protein junkie).
    and for the sauce I use Sriracha sauce for the heat

    My wife and I both love this and it is VERY satisfying. I had never heard of the noodles until I read this thread and I finally found them at Festival foods in Oshkosh.

    Thank you OP for this inspiration!

    They are SO versatile-- I'm glad you found *your* favorite way to prepare them. I keep Sriracha in the house because I do a lot of Vietnamese cooking but I only found it to be "okay" on the shirataki noodles. I guess that's why Baskin-Robbins has 31 flavors!

    For ANOTHER variation, try this (I made it the other night):

    BUFFALO WING STYLE SHIRATAKI NOODLES

    Dry-fry noodles, as described, then add in sauce consisting of 3 ounces of Tabasco, 2-3 tsp Butter Flavored Sprinkles, 1 tsp garlic powder, 1/2 tsp basil. Feel free to substitute your favorite hot sauce and don't be afraid to add a little vinegar to non-vinegar based hot sauces to jazz them up a bit.
