Asian Noodles – Glass Noodles

These Asian Noodles are known by several names, Glass Noodles, Cellophane Noodles, Bean Threads, Transparent Noodles, Chinese Vermicelli and Saifun. Glass Noodles are popular throughout Asia and are used in a variety of dishes including Spring Rolls, Stir Fries, Soups and Salads. China is by far the largest producer of Glass Noodles which are made from Starch, not rice as you might expect, and whilst usually long thin and round, are available in wider sizes as well
