rice noodles

Rice noodles are a type of pasta made primarily from rice flour and water. They are thin or wide strips that become soft and chewy when boiled or soaked. Commonly used in Asian cuisines, especially in dishes like Pad Thai and Pho, rice noodles are valued for their light, neutral flavor that easily absorbs the flavors of sauces and broths. They are naturally gluten-free, making them suitable for those with gluten sensitivities. Prepared through a process of grinding rice into flour, then shaping and drying it into noodles, they offer a versatile and tasty carbohydrate option.
