Nope, this is not a simple question, it is a riddle.
Noodles you say? Noodles?!?
How wrong you are!
You give up?
It's Shirataki silly goose!
Tofu Shirataki, a revelation.
It comes in three varieties: spaghetti, fettuccine, and angel hair-which is the best because its thin noodles actually embody the same texture of a true pasta, opposed to the other two, which have a weird elastic quality...
It is composed of tofu and a type of yam (Konnyaku)
It's gluten-free, diary-free, sugar-free, free of cholesterol, is low carb, low cal, and even has calcium.
It is Genius.
To cook the noodles:
Boiled in a pot of salted water and drained...
Sauteed the shiitakes (using pam and some fresh thyme)
I had a TON of leftover lemony-thyme-coconut broth from the fishy dish-
so i heated up a good amount in a soup pot, added the noodles, mushrooms, some tangy, but light sliced yellow tomatoes, and baby spinach.
waited just a few for the greens to wilt, and feasted.
How long did this lovely meal take?
MAYBE 10 minutes.
i utilized leftovers and still managed to create a something that felt fresh and dynamic.
My Goodness, Robin Miller would be proud :)
