Shirataki Noodles

[clasnic1 36]

Well I am 12 weeks out and I have been so hungry for spaghetti. I tried Shirataki Noodles and they are good. They actually don't have a taste but they took on the taste of the marinara sauce. No carbs, that was my goal... Has anyone else tried them?

Did you try the spaghetti, fettuccine or angle hair style? I tried the fettuccine style noodles and the texture just gave me such a huzz I couldn't swallow them. They were too slick and chewy!!!!!

They are good, but it's best to rinse them first before using. I like them.

[clasnic1 36]

Yes I did rinse them and I used the spaghetti, that was the only kind I could find.

@@clasnic1, thanks for this post. Just last week I was trying to remember the name of these noodles, you've helped me out, thank you!

Haven't tried them yet but it will be on my list of things to try in the near future

I love them! I rinse them really good first though, they stink like fresh mushrooms. I just open the package, pour them in a colander to rinse them and heat them up in a pan of Water on the stove.

Where did you find them?

I've tried them and they are OK. Kind of slimy and tough. I really prefer spaghetti squash instead. For me it's a much nicer texture and actually good for you.

Where did you find them?

They sell them in Asian markets around here.

whole Foods and Trader Joes also carries them

[Dajones 46]

Wal Mart actually carries them. They're in the produce section, refrigerated, near the egg roll wrappers.

[clasnic1 36]

That is exactly where I got them from Walmart near the tofu section. I rinsed them and then put them in hot Water for about 5 minutes. I thought they were very good. I am getting my nerve up to trying spaghetti squash but I am not a squash eater.

[BLERDgirl 6,417]

I like spaghetti squash as well. I think Shirataki noodles makes a great substitute for ramen noodles without all the sodium. Just add a good low sodium broth or miso plus veg and Protein of choice.

Yum yum. I had them pre surgery. My cousin is from Japan and introduced me to them! She made a post and they looked so yummy I had to try them.
