I've ordered them and they have arrived. Now what? Anyone else eating them?

Find a few recipes online and there ya go. Hungry girl does a faux alfredo (which recipe reads nothing like alfredo) but it gets good reviews. You know you have to rinse them well before using, to get the aroma rinsed off, right? I hear they absorb flavor from whatever they are cooked with, so they are more of a vessel for sauces, etc. than something that would add flavor to the meal and, of course, they add bulk so you'll feel full.

Here's hoping you enjoy them.

so have you had them yet TooBig? I wondered how they tasted...don't want to buy them and waste money ...I am a picky eater

I think the trick is to have them in an Asian style noodle bowl - make a stir fry with a lot of veggies, maybe some protein, and add the rinsed and dried noodles with some broth and stir fry sauces (hoisin, sriracha, oyster, etc). I like to top mine with a poached egg - they're similar to ramen. I wouldn't, for example, top them with marinara. That flavor doesn't fit with these noodle for me.



If you don't like the texture, you can take the rinsed and dried noodles and spray a nonstick skillet with some oil spray, then crisp them slightly so you end up with something like Hong Kong crispy noodles

Oh, munchy, you have made these noodles look and sound....delicious.

Ha! Thank you

I don't exclusively use them, even in my noodle bowls, but I think that a lot of people don't like them because they expect them to be more like Italian pasta and they're really not that similar other than in shape.

Oh, I always use the House Foods Tofu Shirataki (20 cals/serving) because it's found at my local Asian grocery store, but I just came across this:

Apparently the Miracle Noodles have a different texture.

OH BOY glad I found this thread !

Hmmm, does anyone have a link to these? I wonder if I can find them in Canada!

I live in Montreal and I can find shirataki at quite a few local Asian grocers (Thai Foo, Marche Eden) as well as at IGA under different brands. IGA has them next to the tofu and salad dressings in the refrigerators.

Omg I love you. Now I know where I can have them without buying online. Thanks god.

How can anything you eat be zero calories? Just curious.

Not sure about zero "calories" but the last time I ate about half a bag or a bit more it was zero WW points. Maybe some brands claim to be zero calories.

Cool, I'll have a look at my grocery store next time I go. Thanks!

There is a link on the right hand side of this page that is offering, through the month of March only, a free digital download of their cookbook and meal plan. I just downloaded it onto my iPad. They say it is a $29.99 value!

If these are those shirataki noodles, I've tried them and did NOT like them. The texture was nothing like noodles and more like rubber (which was okay, actually), the taste was blah (which, again, didn't bother me much), and after eating them they sit like a freaking ROCK in my gut and made me nauseous because of it (NOT okay with me).

I don't ever have the desire to eat them again (and I rinsed and pan-cooked the heck out of mine). But I'd try them, because if you like them it'd be a great dish!
