What Are Shirataki Noodles And Are They Healthy? 

Gay cookbook

Yes absolutely!

Don't forget to eat energy

Eat vegetables for satiety? Ummm…. Ok….

I have never seen the dried version. What are they called. I can't even find kelp noodles.

Totally agree!

I would wash them and cook them with Heinz soup so they could absorb the taste

do you know if there's a way to take away their rubbery/bounciness? been trying to get into them, but the texture leaves a lot to be desired. I've tried boiling them for two minutes and then pan frying them for like 7 minutes to no avail. since they just take on whatever seasoning I put on them taste is no issue, but trying to find a way to do something about the texture. maybe I should just chop them up before hand?

@@this_is_japes7409 Have you figured it out yet?

@@nl1575 nope experimenting with leaving them in a vinegary solution (1/4 cup of vinegar and 2 cups of water for like 6 packs of the yuho stuff) to see if it helps. boiling them for a long time, like 20 minutes, helped slightly. also tried just blending the noodles a little bit and that made it somewhat more tolerable, but only because the bites are smaller. I would however maybe suggest trying to find the brand healthy noodle(i think it's sold at some costcos(not all of them), check the healthy noodle website), they're a bit higher calorie each pack goes from 5cal to 30cals or so instead. but I heard the texture is much better on them. need to make time to get to a costco that has them, but that's one of my next experiments on this journey. update: the vinegar solution didn't work that well, i mean somewhat but not enough for make rubberiness more palatable, i''ve since switched to the brand slim rice, healthy noodle is never in stock at costco, so I ended up just getting slim rice off amazon, look for the ones with some oat flour in the ingredients and are slightly higher calories than the other konjac noodle/rice brands 15 per serving vs just 5. slim rice is significantly more tolerable compared to the yuho brand and miracle rice brands. so it's my current go to.

I think that most east asian sauce are amazing with shirataki :)

You over thinking it. all you need is sesame seed oil and crushed pepper for these noodles

​@@osu3167oh wow. How much sesame oil do you use? That actually sounds smart as hell.

Awesome recipe :)

sounds great, only problem is that peanuts, tahini and sesame seeds all have a lot of fat haha

my parents ordered a bunch of these once and i had to finish up everything because they didn't like it and this is actually what i did all the time used to just boil the noodles, stir fry the veggies, make the sauce and mix it up in the pan to have an amazing meal. for the sauce i mixed sichuan pepper corn powder, chili oil, peanut butter, soy sauce, vinegar or lime juice depending on what i had and some honey to balance the spice.

​@@boxlad7583 I mean, they're technically spending the calories they saved by using shirataki noodles instead of normal ones for the sauce. Sure, the macros are different (fat instead of carbs), but calorie-wise it should come out same-ish as spaghetti with a light sauce.

@@talunae.8924 yea but if you just make an equally calorie dense meal, why bother using substituted noodles in the first place? Unless you like them or specifically want fatty sauces, which is valid, pb and tahini are delicious

Yes absolutely, they are best with asian style dishes, nots o much with western style sauces

I think they can go well with creamy/cheesy sauces as well. I used to make this meal where I'd just cook a package of frozen broccoli in cheese sauce and mix it with a package of shirataki, and it all tasted very good.

Made it as a spaghetti and it tasted amazing . When I dry fry it , I season it with buttery steakhouse, garlic salt , and Italian herb spaghetti seasoning first within that process .

Then your regular recipe of spaghetti after and I use Turkey meatballs if you’re on a diet try it it taste really good , but I uses miracle noodles

The spaghetti "miracle noodle "product from Thailand isn't bad actually. The downfall in this prepkg meal is that you can't rinse the E526 out or.. well, the meal is over! Lol

hello, do you boil the ones that are already wet?

@@EnBrazosDeLaFiebre hi, see the thing is u have to wash them in the beginning because they are packaged with some sort of liquid and that liquid has some kind of pungent smell which I certainly don’t like. I rinse it then boil it then put it on the kitchen towel and after that I put it on a low flame pan without any kind oils or anything. Well after all that once it’s done u may want to mix it with ur sauce of ur choice because these noodles are tasteless. It just adds that extra texture while eating it. I bet u will love it.

And by the way when u put it on the pan on low heat keep flipping those noodles very quickly with a tong or anything u want to with. What I mean is just don’t let them be as they’ll probably burn.

Thank you so much :)

Thank you so much :)

Same for me XD

Thanks for the tip! Never tried kelp noodles

Thank you :)

Poached chicken breast? 🤮

@@moose7012 Yeah I'm more of an ass girl myself tbh

@@hazeltree7738could we make out in

Awesome :)

PS LOVE your content! Very informative!!

I like them as well. Trying to make a shirataki rice recipe soon :) Thank you!

Thanks a lot. That makes me really happy :)

Thank you so much for writing this. I'm really happy that my videos inspire people to make different kind of foods :)

haha I can imagine how you felt there

Thank you so much 😊

I agree! I tried these for the first time the other day… pure evil on my poor digestive system! 🤦🏼‍♀

Thanks for the heads up this would have destroyed me

Death by noodle? Explain? You can die by drinking to much water so why does noodles get a name?

@@everythingpony Death by Water also has it's own name: Drowning

Thank you so much :)

Nice 💪

Thanks a lot :)

Hi, thank you :) Greeting from Stuttgart Germany

@@Felu As a young American soldier I was stationed in Nuremberg in the fall of 1966. Weekend pass drove to Stuttgart searching for a Gasthaus for the wonderful German Bier. I truly miss the 🍺

@@blackhorse2947 That's awesome. German beer is truly special. We have an entire culture around it

Thank you :)

It's so good and thank you for telling me the name of the sauce. didn't know that it's bokkeum jajang

Yeah, don't overconsume them and drink a lot of water

it tasted horrible

Can second this. I ate Konjac Rice and the next morning my stomach was hurting so much I felt like I was gonna die. I'm doing a lean bulk right now so I'm sticking to normal rice for now.

Same thing happened to me. Stomach pain for days bro what the actual f***. Is It something we can do about it?? It tasted amazing with my special tomato sauce with chicken breasts. F**k me

It had a weird taste too, i’d love to have it as an alternative but the after taste was a bit of a turnoff

Thanks a ton!

It's so crazy what is going right now

Welcome and thank you for subscribing :)

If you buy the ones that he has..There is no smell to them at all

Thank you so much 😀

Are they good tho

@Name depends on what you cook it with because it literally has no flavor🤣

Thank you :)

Thanks a lot 😊

Glad you like it, thank you :)

Haha so many people are saying this xD

Thank you. Of course, these are all ingredients I use regularly

Yes it absolutely is :)

Just wondering have you tried or can shirataki noodles be marinated. I have used them previously as a pasta substitute and the texture/lack of taste led me back to spiralling zucchini(steamed with a little low fat butter, salt and garlic brushed on). Maybe with a good marinade it might get rid of the plastic texture and taste. Another idea I just had and might try is boiling with probably a beef stock till it reduces and check the taste/texture. I really want to make them work 10 cal per 100 grams is a game changer if it can work.

Thank you so much. I'm not sure about that. I never tried to make them the day ahead so I realy don't know how they turn out. Only one way to find out i guess :)

@@Felu Thanks for responding. I tried he chicken stir fry today fresh and I cannot believe its under 300 calories for the quantity and taste of the recipe, I am excited to try some more now. I will try to make it before hand and eat it the next day and let you know

Awesome, please just don't overeat on the shirataki. Could upset your stomach if you eat too much in one sitting. 1 serving (200g) is perfect

@@Felu Thanks for the heads up. 👍

Summer around the corner!

It's actually crazy right now. I'm not even sure if I'm ready for this. I guess I keep doing what I'm doing lol

​@@Felu You got this. I like your presentation because it is simple, straightforward and informative. I have been eating your recepies for a month and lost a little under 2 kg without increasing my exercise routine. Your videos help me eat smarter. For instance I did not realize oil had so many calories, I would just splash it in the pan not even thinking about it. I can imagine this sudden uptik in interest is overwelming but you wil probably be fine just doing what you do. Good luck to you.

@@milixer1 Thank you so much :)

I never tried them but people told me that they like the tofu shirataki better. I will try them soon

Thank you Alden. Always appreciate you watching my videos

yes 😀

You read my mind...

Thank you and welcome :)

I tried and I don't think it actually do anything but thank you for the tip

@@Felu I see maybe im mistakes and it only has an impact on fresh noodles.

Yeah that really helps :)

Very true!

The texture of these noodles are not for everyone, sadly. I think the 2nd time will be better now that you know what to expect and what not to expect

I tried them and fried them a good bit because that was recommended to improve the texture and they were still rubbery. It was really off-putting and I just can't think of rubbery noodles as a miracle. : (

Thank you :)

I will drop a shirataki rice video soon

@@Felu awesome!

Good idea. Calories from oil escalate very quickly but as long you measure it on a scale you should be fine :) Thank you for watching!

pan sear dry never add oil, they are pretty much impossible to burn.

Nice, everybody wins :)

Is it healthy?

Nice but I would really start with 1 package and see first if you like it. The texture is not for everyone

Thank you so much! it makes really happy that people like my content

That's good to know, thank you!

ha, as a diagnosed autist who feels itchy 24/7, these are a gift from heaven to me. theyre never too raw and even if i leave them to a soup for a long time, they stay firm.

Thank you 😊

Of course, I have have a video like this already in the making :)

Awesome :)

how much dark soy sauce?

Thank you :)

Yes, these noodles are amazing in pho or in ramen :)

Awesome :) I have some more shirataki videos you might want to try if you like shirataki

@@Felu Already, going through em👍

Thank you :) I love gochujang, I pretty much add that into everything lol

Thank you so much and welcome :) A lot of recipes low in calories and high in protein are in the works :)

Awesome and welcome :)

the brand I use taste like nothing ;)
