ReplyDeleteHi Phong Hong, I'm still trying by regularly eating glass noodles [fried, steamed or in soups]. Let's try together and see the results.
ReplyDeleteHi Anonymous, thanks for the info. I'll go look for it at the Japanese food stores.
ReplyDeleteHi Kimmy, I'm going to cook this on Saturday when the kids are out. This portion is just nice for me and my hubby.
ReplyDeleteHi Amy, the noodle portion is small but with the addition of other ingredients, it is a reasonable portion to fill the tummy. I like to add lots of vege in the noodles.
