Love how informative this video is!!!
Excellent video. Thanks!
1000 thanks – it's so helpful !!
Great Tutorial, this will help a lot! Thank you very much!
I have to admit that my heart sank when you said "Never trust the instructions on the package". But this is a great video and I won't be as worried now when the package has no English instructions! The demo of how to determine if they are correctly partially cooked/hydrated was especially helpful. Thanks!
Yep, rice noodles can be difficult to figure out when you go shopping. I always get the wrong type but I still make them work for whatever I'm cooking ????????♂️
this video is awesome! I've run into too many of the issues that are talked about in this video. I'd say my biggest issue is that I'm trying to treat these noodles like I would wheat noodles. mindset change
There’s a soup I’ve had with sen mee that is really good! It had chicken feet and I think chicken blood, tofu and maybe quail eggs. If you can make that for us it would be great!
Buckwheat is popular In my country and each and every package instructions tells you to use 2 cups of water for 1 cup of buckwheat and then to cook it for 20 minutes. Great recipe if you desire tasteless mush. ????
In reality you need 1,5 cups of water for 1 cup of buckwheat, wash it multiple times, bring it to a boil and keep under lid on low heat for 10-13 minutes.
So I’m very suspicious of package instructions and tend to check advice from online cooks before cooking product I’m not familiar with.
Thank you for your video! I love rice noodles!
The wider noodles are more typical in Cantonese cooking I believe, one dish I know that uses them would be 'chow fun'.
"Never trust the instructions on Asian products." ???? Love it. (It's ok, I'm Asian too!)
I just love you and your channel. Thank you
I love these tips you give, others try it too, but they always… "Pailin" comparison to yours
Love this video! Amazing job.. I’m Vietnamese and tend to be lazy so I use the Viet rice noodles from my pantry instead of Thai. It never turn out 100%.. now I get why ????
