Much better than any low-carb substitute I have found.
Much better than any low-carb substitute I have found. I’ve tried the Japanese seaweed noodles and they were slimy and always taste of seaweed. These noodles absorb the taste of my spaghetti sauce. However they’re much smaller than I thought they would be, see the picture. They’re only about 1 1/2” x 3” and therefore do not maintain the layers of the lasagna. So I basically have a meat sauce with cheese and big noodles floating around in a soup. I rinsed them in a colander and then put them for 30 minutes in milk as instructed. Therefore they lost any taste they might’ve come with. If I had known that these hearts of palm come in skinny spaghetti noodles I would’ve just made spaghetti instead of going to all the trouble of making the layers of the lasagna. They are hard to cut with the side of a spoon and I end up taking the whole noodle at one time. I suppose I could use a knife and fork to cut them up but then why did we use the big noodle? Taste wise like i said they taste like my spaghetti sauce with a little bit of crunch like a hard squash would be. If the thin noodles come this short then they too will not be as nice as having a long spaghetti noodles. I can cut these thicker ones into thin pieces and see if they work well as spaghetti I have used sliced zucchini for the layers in the past. I like the taste of zucchini but it does kind of change the lasagna taste. These don’t make any change to the taste of the lasagna. So for the most part it’s OK. Maybe next time I’ll double up the amount so they overlap maybe that will hold the layers in tact. One can of the noodles only provided one layer of my 13 x 9“ pan and half of the second layer. See the picture above. So I had to spend time waiting for the second Can to rinse before I could finish the job.
