 I give it four stars White Konjac Shirataki Angel Hair Pasta Noodles - 6 X 7.0 Oz - $16.99/ $2.84 per package - Wheat Free, Soy Free The noodle itself was clean, bland, and fresh in flavor. The fishy odor in the packing liquid rinsed off quickly and completely. To prepare I drained the packing liquid then filled the package with warm tap water and poured it off three times. Next I poured the noodls in a strainer and rinsed for about two minutes under running water. Last, I soaked them for half an hour in warm tap water changing the water twice; then rinsed and drained. This was over kill as the fishy odor was gone after the first rinse but I had heard so much negative about this I took no chances. Even so, rinsing was quick with each step taking two or three minutes. I cooked these using a dry roasting method. In a no stick skillet pre heated on high, I cooked the drained noodles for exactly one minute. After cooking I removed the pan from the heat and added half a tablespoon of canola oil an a tablspoon of prepared stir fry sauce along with a sprinkle of dried seasonings. Mix and serve. That's it. One package was about a cup of noodles. They are not pasta so if that's what you are looking for you will be disapointed. They are a lot like celophane noodles found in some Asian recipies. These were neither tough or chewey but had some 'bite' to them. |

I would guess stores would carry them in their international or natural food aisles.
Thanks!
I was told to DRY THEM THOROUGHLY before cooking... perhaps you accomplished that through your "dry roasting method"?

They had a cellophane type noodle cosistency. A little bite, but still not chewey or tough as I'd heard they could be. Some of the odor and texture issues may be brand related.
