Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

UPDATE: My favorite Miracle Noodles, in order: 1. Angel Hair - By far my favorite. Texture is very close to ramen. I absolutely love eating with an organic cheese powder that I buy here on Amazon. The cheese clings to the noodles perfectly, and if I want to eat a childhood favorite, I ate a sliced organic hotdog. It's delicious! 2. Rice - This rice has amazing texture, and is perfect for adding to stews or stir fries. It absorbs flavor well. It's light and fluffy. 3. Fettuccine - I don't buy the fettuccine frequently, because I prefer the angel hair and rice so much more. & lastly, the elbows. I don't recommend them. Unfortunately, in my opinion, the texture of Konnyaku flour doesn't work well as an elbow noodle. It ends up being too rubbery. I cannot say enough good things about these. Okay - here's a secret about me. I'm a very healthy eater. Now and then I'll splurge with a snack or two, but for the most part, I eat a healthy, grain-free paleo diet.... but my secret is that I used to LOVE ramen noodles. Everything about them - the texture, the salty, MSG-laden taste of the packet that comes with them, especially the shrimp flavor! As I became more health conscious and kicked ramen noodles to the curb, I found myself yearning for the days when I would drop a convenient block of noodles in a boiling pot of water. Miracle noodles are just as convenient. Seriously. You rinse them in cool water, boil them for 2-3 minutes, drain them and you're done. Some of the instructions recommend dry roasting them in a pan for a minute afterwards. I haven't tried that yet, but I plan to. Regardless, they taste delicious. I have been eating gluten-free for several years now. I missed the taste of real noodles. Rice noodles can be so sticky and heavy. Quinoa noodles are probably my second favorite, but they still don't satisfy my noodle craving the way Miracle Noodles do. Miracle noodles are light but fulfilling. The texture is difficult to describe. It's similar to ramen, but if you're expecting it to be completely the same, you might disappointed. As far as taste goes, they are very mild-tasting, which means that they're perfect for adding spices to and creating whatever dish you dream of. I've been adding a small amount of broth to mine with spices like paprika, salt, garlic, and sometimes turmeric. I'll throw some peas in there or any other veggies I have on hand. It makes for such a quick, healthy meal. I'm working on coming up with other sauce ideas. These won't work with the average tomato sauce because they require a stickier, thicker sauce since they don't absorb as well as a regular noodle does. The more I cook with these, however, the more I become accommodated with which flavors and toppings pair well with them. They're very unique, but they're worth experimenting with! Update: I've found the perfect recipe for these! I eat paleo, so I'll give you the paleo version and the regular version of the recipe for you to try. First, I make a vegetable soup. I make mine from scratch using any veggies I have on hand, a pot roast, a can or two of crushed tomatoes, some vegetable stock, and a dash of honey. You can use a pre-made vegetable soup, or you can make your own with whichever ingredients you choose. I divide it up so that half of it remains soup, and the other half will be used for my sauce for miracle noodles. I freeze them in separate containers (individual sized for convenience). I use about 1/4 cup of the soup, toss it into a pan with 1 tablespoon or so of butter, add Coconut Aminos to taste, along with about 2 teaspoons of arrowroot. The arrowroot thickens the sauce to the PERFECT texture so that the miracle noodles absorb the sauce. It tastes absolutely amazing - almost like a beef stroganoff. I season it with a bit of sea salt and paprika. It's so savory and delicious. If you don't eat paleo and you don't have these ingredients on hand, no problem. Take your soup, add butter and some soy sauce to taste along with enough flour to thicken it to your liking. You can use any thickener you choose. Either way, it'll taste amazing. I mix it with the miracle noodles, it blends so well, and it's the perfect portion of food for me. My 2nd favorite recipe: 1 package Miracle Noodles Angel Hair Organic Cheese Powder Butter Protein of your choice (cooked hamburger meat, hot dogs, chicken, etc.) Rinse and cook your Miracle Noodles. Add about 1/2 tablespoon of butter - basically you want to coat the noodles with some liquid leftover on the bottom. Then, add in as much cheese powder as preferred. I like mine mildly cheesy, but if I'm in the mood to add extra, I sometimes also add more butter to ensure that it ends up creamy. The cheese powder sticks so well to these noodles. Afterwards, toss in some cooked hamburger, hot dogs, chicken, or any meat of your choice. Or eat it plain..tastes delicious by itself! As far as nutritional value - they are touted as a weight loss food. I don't eat them for that reason though. Sure, they're low-calorie, but I eat them because they're also nearly carbohydrate free. I avoid carbs because I'm a mild diabetic, and I avoid grains due to GI problems. These are the perfect option for me. They also slow the digestive process which makes for better digestion and absorption of nutrients. I honestly recommend these to everyone I meet - whether you follow a strict, healthy diet or you just want to experiment with a new pasta, these are a wonderful alternative. And the price is fantastic as well.
