Low Carb SHIRATAKI NOODLE Review & Taste Test - Tips for the BEST Shirataki Noodle Recipe!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 12 ส.ค. 2024
- Low carb shirataki noodles are one of the most contentious products on the market. Made from konjac flour, these noodles have a texture very similar to real pasta noodles. Today, we taste test three of the most popular brands, including the powerhouse lowcarb pasta called Miracle Noodles. Which brand won our taste test? Did we find any of the low carb shirataki noodles to be an acceptable substitute for actual pasta? Let's find out!

I have played with shirataki and I find the best method is to thoroughly rinse in hot water in a strainer, then microwave for two minutes. After that, the odd flavor almost vanishes and the texture is good for whatever. They work best in broth dishes like ramen, since they absorb the flavor and become delicious. I would like them even off a diet.
Thanks for the tips.
I just made the fettuccine pasta zero with sausage, peppers and onions, fresh garlic with a light tomato paste sauce, My God! I can't explain how incredibly delicious it came out 😋 sprinkle with parmesan cheese.
Which brand?
@@cassaraholland4517 The brand is Pasta Zero
I meant to ask; where to find it?
@@cassaraholland4517 I purchased it at my local supermarket, I see Amazon has a 6 pack for less than $10.. Which is great, I might have to jump on that!
That sounds amazing.
Miracle Noodles are my favorite . Been eating for10 years. I have lost 125 pounds.
Wow! That's amazing.. congrats!
👀
How do you prepare these please?
Wow good
Awesome thank you
Miracle Noodle came out with Ready-To-Eat noodles that have no smell, no squeak and no weird taste! I've really enjoyed them.
where did you get the ready to eat one??
@@pambano8314Amazon is where I got mine.
I will let you into a little secret Highfalutin..Add lemon juice to the boiling water before adding the noodles, then when dry frying add a little more Lemon juice..Completely gets rid of the fishy taste and smell
Derry Shore Adding lemon makes sense because you can get the fishy smell of fish/shrimp off your hands with lemon. Good tip!
Derry Shore I just had that same thought!
Do you think lime will work instead of lemon?
Great idea!
Genius!!!!
i absolutely adore this man.
I adore you for watching and commenting! Thanks, Chardae! ❤️❤️
Me too!! I just bought some Mac daddy powdered cheese to make macaroni and cheese now I just need to find a perfect noodle for my keto diet
Me too
Me too. Reminds me so much of my son
I rinse and put on a parchment lined baking sheet and dry in the oven at 350° for five or six minutes. No boiling no dry fry in a pan. Much easier same results.
Would airfrying them work just as well?
Yeah!!
I just rinse under water and throw them in whatever dish I'm making and cook them in that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I tried the Pasta Zero and it was delicious. I made some old fashion spaghetti (ground meat, Rao’s pasta sauce and Pasta Zero) and my spirit was happy. I’m so glad I saw this and got over the fear of these noodles. Thank you!!!
Yay! Thanks for taking the time to comment and let me know, Wendy! ❤️👍
Can’t wait to try your ideas!!
I use these in stir fry recipes. Can't tell the difference once they absorb all the garlic and ginger and soy sauce. Fooling my brain into not to feeling cheated out of traditional food is key to success. That's why you are the best. The taste testing is awesome.
Yes! I immediately thought that these would excel in Asian recipes like you are describing - moreso than in Italian recipes. I've been craving pho or ramen and these might work out well! Thanks for sharing, Becca! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Highfalutin' Low Carb They are absolutely best used in Asian recipes. If you want an Italian sauce experience put that over steamed broccoli or a vegetable noodle. It's the sauce you like, anyway.
Yes, I love zoodles and spaghetti squash!
ive never had zucchini.. what does it taste like?
they don't really have a distinct taste. They are a soft bland vegetable that require a lot of technique in order to have a good flavor. The problem with unskilled cooks in 100% of cases is bland mushy results.
You are sooo amazing!!! The Food Network should give you your own show! We need a low carb cooking show and you would kill it!
“It stinks like a dirty fish tank” ...sniffs the bag 8 more times. 😂😂😂 I love your videos. You crack me up.
🤣
Aka: earthy! ❤
😂🤮🤮🤮🤡
I actually buy pure shiitake noodles from our local asian market and get WAY more bang for my buck! I found them when looking for some ingredients to make this FABULOUS traditional homemade Japanese ramen recipe I found on TH-cam. It has turned out to be one of my favorite things to eat on Keto when I need that warm my soul kind of food!!
Please share the TH-cam link for that recipe!
THIS is the kind of ‘public service’ you do that makes your channel such a treasure. Thank you!
Thank you for taking the time of looking for them, buying them, research them, prepare them, film, and edit the whole shebang, so that we can have a pretty good idea on what to buy. Wow. You got yourself a new subscriber!
Thank you, thank you! Welcome aboard! 👍👍
I love, love, love this man! So down to earth, keeps it real, respectful, and damn entertaining!
I just love watching you. I truly feel you have the best personality of all the keto channels I watch. I enjoy so many diffrent ones but you always make me smile and help so much in your comparing videos.
I entirely agree!
I like them! As long as I use a good sauce or cook them in a pan With other foods. This is TMI but they have been a life saver while struggling with an eating disorder. I can eat an entire bag with lots of veggies and not freak out /purge.
when you can't eat pasta anymore, and you have deprived yourself of wheat or egg noodles, these are just fine with any sauce or stirfry. Keto people really become more tolerant of things like this because you CAN"T have what others have with high carbs. You learn to like it. It's like unsweetened dark chocolate, you just learn to deal......
true
Very true! I hated avocado and now I don't mind it.
Lily's Chocolate sweetened with stevia!
@@DollyMamaDiva but, some of us are poor, and can't afford 4 dollars for a candy bar, or 7 dollars for a bag of chocolate chips.😢😭
No they're not, taste and texture. The zeroodle brand is pretty decent mild flavor, texture horrid.
Hello, I grew up in a Sicilian family. My dad came right from Sicily. My moms family too. I am a first generation American born of Sicilian decent. Love my pastas! Need to try one of these. I am so glad you did a video sharing how to prepare. Thank you.💕 NonnaGrace
First video I've seen of yours and I absolutely adore your personality. I am going to be purchasing these and I am finally able to see myself being able to do keto. I absolutely just cannot give up my pasta and that has been the most difficult part of hanging on. I'm ready to try this! Thank you!
If you use vinegar to rinse the noodles it takes the smell out immediately
Joey Varacalli the vinegar worked like a charm
Better One exactly as you said. I used Apple Cider Vinegar instead of distilled. Then I dry fried them as the video said
I have also read that lemon juice works.
Lemon juice works perfectly as well! No aftertaste at all
Boiled in vinger, and water, worked well, no weird smell
These are phenomenal when prepared in an Asian style sauce or broth. They are less great when trying to cook them in an Italian preparation or in a cream sauce. I made amazing Pad Thai with these! One thing to save you time, they do not need to be boiled. All you have to do is rinse well, dry in a towel, cut them if they are super long and dry fry. Done! They may not look like much but 1/2 of one of those bags along with a protein and veg is incredibly filling. Word of caution, drink water before or after eating these. They are full of fiber so water is crucial and that's why they cause some people digestive issues. Also, they are a real choking hazard for people that have any sort of esophageal issue. Don't feed these to children! Great video. You're awesome!
yamit wood VERY good tip about feeding to children! And about cutting them. I wasn't sure if I was knitting or eating! 😂 Thanks for the info!!
Knitting or eating! Ha! You are made for the screen dear! I forgot to add that you should throw the dry fried noodles back into your sauce and stir fry them around with whatever you are making. They absorb the flavor and sauce much like tofu. In Asian dishes, they are so passable. I'm a chef on keto and I adore your channel!!!!!!!!!! ADORE!
ty for the tips..Now I need a recipe for an asian meal with these..I miss lo mien
@@JewelsFromVenus I have a pretty good recipe if you still need one
Yamit Behar I would be interested to seeing your delicious weekly menus
I am usually not able to watch long videos because they don't keep my attention but you have a VERY engaging presentation style. It also helps that you stay on-topic throughout your videos. Thanks for making interesting and helpful content.
I just tried these noodles, I made fettuccine noodles and my Keto version of a Alfredo sauce, I added Argentinian red shrimp that had been cooked with Cajun seasoning and lime juice in a skillet, and I love them! These Noodles save my life Cause I have to stay on this meal plan, I’m about to do a rice dish and a spaghetti dish next. I ordered them online from Amazon miracle noodles here is my preparation:
TIP: I let my noodles drip dry in the colander so less water wham I pan dry them - makes them done quicker and I like the taste.
TIP: I always season my pasta I don’t just add salt, I add chicken bouillon cube or if I don’t have that just garlic salt and salt maybe a little cumin and that’s it, onion salt if I have it, I add to taste and when I taste the water and if I like the taste, has kind of good flavor that’s what I boil my noodles in. Been doing that to my regular pasta noodles for years because it adds a little bit of flavor that’s yummy. I love the way these noodles turned out another tip when they get cold they get squishy and I prefer them firm So I recommend you eat them WARM or hot, another
TIP: they were a little bit too long for me, I don’t like to cut my noodle with my teeth, the noodle texture is great for me but I do not like to have to cut them with my front teeth it’s just a personal thing so I cut them (I just grab the bunch and make one cut with kitchen shears.) before I prepare them. DELICIOUSNESS
I normally do not watch videos that are this long, but your in depth explanation and personality made me stick around! Just subscribed and excited to peruse your other vids :D
Thanks, Lauren! I appreciate the kind words. Welcome aboard! ❤️👍
best keto long form videos on yt
Me too, don’t watch over 5 minutes.... But this one was so worth it 👍✅
Thanks Wes, and everyone for their awesome tips and tricks to cooking these noodles. I made them last night, with a marinara and Italian chicken sausage sauce, topped with quattro formaggio cheese. (All ingredients were purchased at Trader Joe's). The turnout was fantastic! How I did it. I bought the Nasoya spaghetti noodles. Opened the package over my colander in cool running water. Rinsed well. Then transferred to a bowl with apple cider vinegar and lemon juice. I let it set for a few minutes. And thoroughly rinsed again. I patted out excess water with paper towels and dry fried. When they appeared fairly done, I added dry oregano and basil, garlic, salt, pepper and a little basil olive oil. And heated for a few mins. Done. I took out the noodles, topped with my marinara meat sauce, and served. The texture and turn out was better than I expected! Really good. I think I was only successful for the first time because of this video and the other input from viewers. Thanks Keto community!
i appreciate the use of the cast iron, that is my go-to pan for everything and pretty non-stick for me using daily. Great video! Thanks a lot.
I got a chuckle, when he smelled the noodle bag said they smell, then smelled the bag again and said they smelled, then smelled three or four more times, to let us know they really smelled..........lol. Japanese eat a tremendous amount of dried fish and seafood items. So the noodles having a fish smell probably doesn't bother the fish flavor of the dish. Also put some shrimp into the Alfredo sauce!
My husband and I are dieting and I often make stir fried noodles with shirataki. Just some chicken, veggies, ginger and soy sauce. We like it. But we're Japanese 😂
Alissa Ishihara I think they would totally excel in Asian dishes. Should have mentioned that in the video. Thanks so much for watching and commenting, Alissa! ❤️❤️🙏
I just found these noodles recently and love them!!! I especially like that they are flavorless until you put sauce on them then they add so much to the dish because the taste of the noodle never distracts from the taste of the rest of the ingredients yet you still have the noodle that gives body to the dish. I am not Japanese, but really like this noodle alternative.
Love these noodles because great substitute for pasta and I m glad there is one get used to the prep and save them or add to soups I use also whenever I need rice eg with curries and casseroles ....I prefer them to cauli rice
Why can’t you use oil....I’ve fried them in olive oil
I wish you could shorten this with less repetition more visuals the boiling the wShing why isn’t it videod and basically too long and therefore boring although I want to know th3 content
Just found your channel, and you're personality made me smile. You're so fun! Thanks for your transparency!
Thank you for helping me expand my horizons! I've read that the rice shirataki or chopped shirataki noodles work well combined with cauliflower rice for making low-carb sushi! Or a more convincing rice-like stir-fry. The shirataki gives the cauli-rice a bit more of the expected rice-like chew.
Love this, I have MS, and was so sick, I had to lose weigh due to steroids. The weight made me sicker.
235 pounds and I lost 80 pounds, these noodles helped me get my life back.
Hungry Girl has lots of recipes using these noodles.
Love your page and your humor.
Way to go!
Hi. Are you still around? I got an important question you may help me with. Thanks
Bravo!
Good going! I have R.A. and have gained 80lbs from prednisone. I just started intermittent fasting and keto. Down 15 lbs and loving life again. Never heard of these noodles till today😳
How have y ou been so far? Are you off your meds?
The best one i have tried is the zeroodle version that contains oat fiber. It improves the texture greatly and is awsome in stirfrys
OMG!! I love your videos. Thankyou for all the research and trials you do for us 😍 so entertaining.
I just received a shipment of these from Amazon so I'm happy to see how to prepare them. The rinsing is the only instructions on the package. Thank you!
This video came up as a recommended video. I am excited to check out the rest of your channel. TH-cam did a great job on this recomend and you did a great job on this video. Thank you.
Thanks, Christine! Welcome aboard!
You just gained a new subscriber! This was awesome!! Thanks for the info!!
He gets cooking at 9:09.
Valerie Fernandez thank you, cause damn lol
Thank you because that's all I came to look at.
Thank you I wish I would have seen your message earlier! 🤪
Not all heroes wear capes.
Valerie Fernandez thank you
I look forward to your videos! You’re fair with the results. I love that.
like everyone else is saying, these really are a perfect dupe in asian/asian-inspired meals. They remind me a lot of rice noodles which I think is why it works. You won't miss the carbs AT ALL.
I'm so glad you did this review. My friend just told me today that she had some for the first time in an alfredo sauce but wasn't told they were low carb until after dinner. She didn't really notice the difference other than a slight texture variation. I was hesitant to try them but found your review and will definitely head to Publix so I can, once again, indulge in Pho Ga, my favorite go to soup! I think I will try a few tips that are given in the comments, especially adding the lemon. I don't know how I feel about the boil/not boil thing. If a mfg puts it on their package as a direction, it makes me nervous to deviate. Glad you did it by the book first. That's why I love your channel.
Hello, I really enjoy your videos.
I'm writing from Japan. Konjac noodles here are ALWAYS found in the refrigerated section. We usually rinse them, cut them if necessary, and then boil. This is the first I've heard of pan frying, but I'm interested to try it. We usually just simmer in a flavorful broth. It picks up the flavor very well. If you are doing a one pot meal, be careful to not let it touch meat if you cook them together, it will make the meat touch. I always layer a vegetable between the konjac and the meat.
Because it is so high in fiber and low in calories, it has been used for a long time here as a diet food. I sometimes add it to my smoothies, once chopped up in the blender it is unnoticeable.
Keep up the good work
Anje.U9 WOW! Thank you so much for commenting! It's very interesting hearing from someone "in the know." I really appreciate you sharing with us.
Are they called konjac in Japan, or is there a different name? I'm curious about the pronunciation of the word. Wikipedia and the encyclopedia say it's "kon-YACK" but some people say it's pronounced "kon-JACK." Which is correct, or is it called something else entirely?
Oops! That should have been it will make the meat tough. Here it's pronounced konnyaku as Japanese always ends in a vowel except for n. Generally you can buy it here as noodles or in blocks. We have the white kind, or a gray/brown kind due to hijiki seaweed being added for higher mineral content.
+Anje.U9 I can't thank you enough for jumping into the conversation! Thanks again!! 👍👍👍
Thank you for making such great videos. Like some other commenters, I would be very interested to see homemade konnyaku noodles, if you have the time and interest.
A couple things as I was watching this today! It is important to stress that your actual nutrition comes from whatever you put these with. They are fantastic in a good chicken noodle soup! I use the Nasoya! Thanks for posting this!
OMG! I’ve been using these for a couple of years now and never knew about the dry frying!? 🤪 If it makes them taste even more like regular pasta then I’m in! We bought some Tofu Shirataki in macaroni shape and we love them!! (Gotta have my mac and cheese and goulash!😊) Thank you so much!
You are so entertaining, I don't even care about low carb but you are worth watching.
Candide Thirtythree Well, SHADANG! Thanks!!
I ❤️ Miracle noodles! I eat 2 bags! I like strong herbaceous sauces. Rice makes an awesome "Rice Pudding!"
Great video, thank you for making this video. I was just researching, but I love your presentation and relatable personality. I will definitely like, subscribe, and share! 🙌🏼
I loved the look on his face when he tried the tofu noodles ! I think he was trying to be nice about it. What a sweet man:)
I remember the very first time I prepared Shiratake noodles with my low carb version of TGIFriday's Cajun Chicken and Shrimp Alfredo Sauce. I was SO LOOKING FORWARD to this dish because it used to be my "go to" dish whenever my husband and I took the family to dinner. The product I used was the second variety of tofu-shiratake noodles you prepared in your video (can't recall the name right at the moment) I have no earthly idea what I did wrong because I am pretty sure I followed the directions implicitly, but the texture reminded me of what it would taste like to shred a common kitchen sponge and sauce it before eating. My poor husband ate it and commented that it was chewy but not that bad. I was MAD (NOT at him...) but because I felt it was a HUGE WASTE of sauce. Thankfully, someone turned me on to Miracle Noodles so I gave the angel hair pasta variety a try and was NOT disappointed. Now, let's be honest....these Shiratake noodles, in no way, replace traditional pasta, but they are NICE way to enjoy an Italian inspired sauce! They sort of remind me of cooked bean sprouts...something I can live with as a pasta replacement. My husband liked them and I LOVE THEM!
I absolutely love your honest reactions!
It's July 29, 2020. Just found this channel. Most of are are in semi lock down. This guy totally cracks me up. I needed this😊
Thank you, Margaret! ❤️
I can’t wait to try! You save me SO much time and expense trying and comparing everything that you are my go to before I try anything low carb. Thank you AGAIN!🎉
I loved everything about this video! I would sooooo watch you on tv. Great video!
Honestly spaghetti squash works for a great pasta alternative without the “smell”. I’ve had non keto eaters tell me it tastes similar to normal pasta just a slight different consistency.
I found it once in a supermarket in Scotland but then it was never to be found again - anywhere it seems in the UK which is a pity as I loved it
Yall need to understand consistency IS the problem.
@@bevnicholson9916if you have any garden space, they are very easy to grow. I planted four plants in a raised bed and let them climb a trellis and I got over 20 spaghetti squash this year off just those four plants. I grew a variety called Small Wonder.
Watching on my tablet in bed. This one is so funny at times I keep waking my husband up laughing so hard! Love you! We need these laughs right now!
Here on the West Coast of Canada, we have a brand of Konjac noodles called "Luvina". It comes in a 400 gram (about 0.9 of a pound) package that contains 2 sealed pouches. It doesn't need refrigeration. I'm really glad that this is what was available to us, because this brand doesn't have any of the smell or taste issues of these ones you tested. When you open them to drain, they have a very slight odour, but nothing like you're describing.
I rinse them for maybe 30 seconds, (no salt) and then boil them like pasta for 5-7 minutes. They have a bit more of a springy texture than wheat pasta, but other than that, they are basically "pasta like".
My Asian Wife absolutely loves them, and no longer cares that she can't eat white rice any more, so that should tell you something.
Take note that, although the serving size is small, it is extremely FILLING! I eat a little less than my share of the pouch (100 grams), otherwise I get bloating from the high fibre content, and I am absolutely stuffed! My wife doesn't experience the bloating, even though she's 98 lbs to my 170 so (obviously), it affects some people this way and not others.
Anyway, if you're able to get a hold of this brand, give it a try. It comes in different shapes.like rice and penne, and we've tried them all, but find that the spaghetti is the best for texture. I even use it with my homemade curry instead of rice, and it's excellent.
I found the smell of sodium bicarbonate off the noodles, which thorough rinsing gets rid of.
I love watching your videos! You're like my new Alton Brown when he did the scientific cooking shows! I truly appreciate your efforts.
Thank you, Jodi! You don’t know how much that means to hear. ❤️👍
Imagine making delicious Thai and Indonesian spicy dishes. How can anyone get bored on Keto with these options. Its the sexiest diet available.
I'm new to Keto and this is the only diet in 3.5 decades that I'm finding isn't boring. I agree with you. 👍😁 I can see this as a new lifetime way of eating. 🙌
NightVision72 keto is the only way I have eaten that I feel full after I have eaten.
Diane Winchester Lol I bought my noodles to make pad Thai noodles
Sexiest diet available 😂
I'm dreaming of trying these noodles out with all Asian recipes including pho!
Thank you so much for your demonstration-it was fabulous.
I have. Even looking for these but did not know they were in the refrigerated section thank you, can’t wait to try it now. Have been enjoying your shows thank you for all the information and entertainment.
Thank you for ALL the hard work. I tried Miracle noodles several years ago & gagged. Could not eat them. However I don't think I did the pre work. I'll try again. I'm a new subscriber & really enjoy your videos. I need a variety to last long term.
Thanks, Nancy. Let me know what you think if you do try them again!
I love how he says how awful it smells yet smells it another five or six times! LMBO😆😆😂😂
Your channel and IG are awesome! THANKS!
My grocery store has the Pasta Zero, so I tried it! Pretty awesome! If you rinse them for 10 min in cold water, and then microwave them (or boil) in water for 5 min, maybe mix in garlic powder, if you like. Strain them, and then prepare them in a nice Pasta dish with tomato sauce, you can't tell difference! Plus, they fill you up fast so you won't be hungry! A little extra prep saves you on carbs!
Thanks for doing this video W. I just love all of the videos you create!!!! Have you ever considered doing a podcast? I could listen to you talk all day haha!
As someone whos partially italian pasta is the hardest thing for me to give up on a keto lifestyle. I actually found these my 1st week into keto, THANK GOD! Ive had pretty good success with them with boiling them with a little vinegar or citrus juice in the water. I've tried it without the
vinegar/citrus and they were still pretty unpleasant to me. I think these really do their best with asian dishes.
I agree! They really shine in Asian dishes -especially soups! 👍🏻
I'd love to see you do a keto brownie throw down. Some people love their avocado brownies. Others are fond of their almond flour brownies. Still others like coconut flour as their base. It would be nice to find out which brownie is truly the best.
William Klein That is DEFINITELY on my list, so stay tuned! (Mmm... browniessss.). 😜
And okra brownies
Here's the Keto Brownie Recipe Challenge video for anyone curious about the results:

Really enjoy your channel. Thanks for such consistent quality videos for so long. Take care!!
Ordered some last night! Cant wait to try them! Thank you for this video!
I love when you say, "get out of here" to the food, Lol! Love ya
I just tried the Miracle Noodles and they are very neutral tasting and have the right feel when eating them. They are great for a stir fry! I didn't find they made the stir fry anymore salty than usual and being neutral they let the other ingredients do the talking. Great noodle! No weird smell when cooking either.
Thanks for all your content, you are amazing and have actually inspired me to start my own vlog documenting my keto weight loss journey….. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much for this video! Now I get why and how to use these!. I've had them in my pantry and my husband ordered them. I've been pretty intimidated by them and now I'm excited to make spaghetti for dinner!
I tried the Shirakiku brand with Ground Turkey marinara and loved them!~😋 Also, they tasted better after marinating in sauce over night~
+Cindy Vsg That sounds great! And I can see how soaking overnight in yummy sauce would only improve them! Thanks for watching and commenting, Cindy! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
Highfalutin' Low Carb Wow, seems like work! The miracle noodles are good.. I boil a full tea pot of water, put the noodles in a colander over the sink, and pour over the hot water, give it a minute to drain and eat them. Thanks for the video.
I tried Nasoya Shirataki noodles for the first time because of you and I quite enjoyed it for what I wanted to make. I made it into a keto pad thai and a keto thai coconut curry seafood soup. knew about them for a long time but I was intimidated to try it. 😅
I bet they're good with some coconut shrimp yum
you are so funny!! and your humor is not crass or vulgar! I can watch you with my whole family!! Keep it up!!
Thank you for the kind words, Grace! (Be careful if you watch my Bread Battle video. I said a couple of naughty words that might not be appropriate for younger ears, but that’s the only one, I think.) Welcome aboard! ❤️👍🏻
I used the pasta zero in making homemade keto pad thai and I can't stress the importance of boiling with salted water and pan frying ON HIGH heat for longer than recommended because my first batch came out with the consistency of earthworms. After trying again with this in mind it came out better and adding more chopped peanut to the pad thai helps hide more of the offness of texture. The egg, chicken or tofu, and sauce make it really delectable.
Serving size is small, but they are soooo filling. I find the consistency to be rubbery, but not bad!
Susan Johnson Good observation: "rubbery but not bad." And they are definitely filling. And to be honest, being a Big Guy™ I have always had a hard time judging portion sizes, which got me in the situation I'm in today. LOL. Thanks for watching and commenting, Susan! ❤️❤️🙏🏻🙏🏻
Highfalutin' Low Carb 😄
If it’s rubbery then you’re not cooking right
You know I dont really care about low carb food. I just love watching you! If I happen to pick up some good tips along the way...even better.🤩
Me, too!!!
I only use Shirataki noodles to replace rice "glass noodles" with Asian food (I'm stuck using what they have at the local Chinese grocery). I find they replicate that texture well. When I want Italian pasta I just do eggplant cut into noodles, stir fried with salt, olive oil and a pinch of garlic powder and rosemary. It tastes... like eggplant, but eggplant goes well with most pasta recipes. But I'm so glad you did this video; I had no idea about the dry roasting!
Thank you for your awesome comparison video! I did exactly what you said about prepping the Noodles (I bought online from VitaCost, lasagna noodles. They came in liquid non frozen.) I rinsed for over 3 minutes, then in in boiling water and tsp. of Lawery's Garlic Herb salt for 3 min on low. Then pan dried. These noodle had and No Smell or taste after the process you shared!! Thank You!
Awesome! Thanks for watching and commenting, Heidi!
I made the miracle noodles with fried panchetta, sundried tomatoes, kalamatas, and spinach in an alfredo sauce. Holy cow! So good!
Carol Salvador YUMMM!!
Carol Salvador do you have a recipe?
I
Spent 4 hours looking for a place that sells miracle noodles today...zero luck
Neil Hosler Asian markets always have them
Thank you. I’m willing to try one of these now based on your face.
I eat low Carb Organic Edamame pasta occasionally. But I recently found shirataki noodles here locally at an Asian market. No fish smell at all and made a great stir fry. I think once you find the ones you like, you will enjoy them. Awesome video man, new SUB from me. Cheers!
I did not know about all this prep work! I have had them quite a few times. I rinse them under cold water, but I just tossed them in a skillet with some EVO and garlic. I make a low carb alfredo sauce and then top with sauteed shrimp. I will have to try them your way! In fact, I am making this tonight, so I will see if there is a difference. They do have that earthy taste you talked about, but I don't notice it that much after making it the way I have been cooking it for the past 3 years. I just found you on here a few days ago and have really enjoyed watching you cook! You are funny and informative too! Keep up the great work!
Again, another great video. I may consider trying these now. I do miss pasta :-(
debcar Thanks as always, debcar! Always appreciate your comments. If you try them, report back! ❤️🙏
I buy Miracle Noodles at my local grocery store in the health food aisle. We have a health food store who also carries them. I don't bother with all the steps, I just rinse and rinse them, then add them to crack slaw, stir fries or soups. $2.99 a package at both stores (in southern Wisconsin)
Sheree Pechin Thanks for the tips, Sheree!
I used these for the Laksa recipe from Marion's Kitchen, as long as you've rinsed down very well and cooked for the last 5-10 mins in the soup it worked pretty well, texture is a bit odd but for that dish the flavor worked quite well.
Watching this video made me so happy. Your personality is so fun!!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for this video! I’ve held onto the miracle noodles for about two months now scared to death to try them. You gave me the courage to give it a go. And thanks for all you do, all your other videos, and your super positive attitude.... I really appreciate you.
Skip to 26:00 if you want the taste comparison. Another good video but really long.
Your Alfredo sauce sounds yummy! I will trying it on the noodles. Thank you for the review.
Hello Wes! I just love watching your videos, thank you so much for your time and hard work. I have a request, can you please think about doing a video of Zeroodles and the NuPasta and letting us know what they really taste like? Thank you and bless you !!!! Angie
Love your videos :-) Miracle Noodle also makes a product called Kanten Pasta - it comes dry and you can either rehydrate in hot water or put directly into your sauce - it requires no rinsing and has no smell - it lists as 6g Total Carbs and 6g Fiber - Net Carbs = 0. Suggestion is not to ever boil it as it sort of dissolves (I kinda like it semi-dissolved too).
Laurel Flax Wow! Thanks for that info. Off to Amazon I go! 😃
@@HighfalutinLowCarb OUCH on that price tho! My goodness
Wow! I am going to try he dried version. Just found this on amazon. Thanks!
I love shirataki noodles, and I just rinse them and eat. I bet they taste even better with the boiling and dry frying. Thanks for the info! I really wonder why the miracle noodles don't need to be refridgerated?? Very strange.
Foodie Turned Sleevie Thanks for watching and commenting! If you do try boiling and dry frying, come back and let me know if you can tell a difference. I'd be curious to know!
Boiling for 3-5 minutes removed the fishy smell. Dry frying adheres the sauce better for flavor. I make pad thai, curried shrimp, and Vietnamese Pho! Love the creativity without the carbs! 😁
Brand new follower. Just came across u, by chance. I'm SO glad!👍🏼😄 I just used this video to make "Skinny" noodles & they turned out awesome! I'm strict Keto & these are the best I've made, thus far. I will continue to check out ur videos. Thank you! Keep it up! 🙏🏼💯
I love watching You, Wes.
I want to try making my own and I will let You know how it works.
In the meantime, I think that I may try the Miracle Noodles.
I really appreciate your work!
I have to say- you’ve missed the BEST noodles here but they are not easy to find! I used to get them at Wegmans (NJ & PA grocery store) but now I just ordered them online.
Brand is Skinny Pasta Konjac noodles. NO fishy smell!! NONE!!
Nice texture and no stink they are my winners.
Thanks, Betsy! I’ll be sure to look for them!
You're so fun to watch. Thank you so much for this review. I'm gonna start to salt mine. Lol 😂 you're hilarious
Didi1770 Thanks, gal! You know I always appreciate your comments! ❤️❤️❤️
I just tried the Tofu shirataki noodles tonight. My package didn't mention the dry pan portion though. I threw them in an alfredo with tuna and peas and other than a really odd texture, they weren't terrible. They at least gave me the pasta feel. I'm glad to see you thought their texture was off too lol
Darlin! You’re an angel for doing this! I’ll have to try it!
