    In addition to your local Asian market, you can find glass noodles where many of us get most of our groceries these days: online!

    For this recipe, you can use these Rothy glass noodle red (Dangmyeon Bokki), or you can use the non-spicy glass noodles (Rothy noodle, Rothy wide glass noodle, Rothy Korea glass noodle). These noodles are famous in Korea, have a fan following on YouTube, and have been featured on many television shows. These are made from Cassava starch and are naturally gluten-free. You can find these through Amazon and they arrive so quickly!

    I used the Rothy non-spicy wide glass noodles in the chili lime sauce and shrimp recipe below. The Rothy spicy red wide glass noodles come with packets of red sauce, and are great to eat on their own!

    Glass Noodles FAQ

    • packages of wide glass noodles
    What are glass noodles made of?

    Most glass noodles from China are made of mung bean starch. Glass noodles made in Korea and Japan tend to be made from sweet potato starch. Some use other starches, such as arrowroot or tapioca. The Rothy glass noodles, however, are made from Cassava starch. These have already gone through the steaming process, so they take less time to cook than dried noodles. They're also lower in calories than traditional wheat noodles and are naturally gluten-free.

    What do glass noodles taste like?

    The Rothy glass noodles are softer and much chewier than wheat noodles. The taste, however, is very similar. Both have sweet and spicy notes; I found the regular glass noodles to be more to my taste than the spicy red noodles, but if you like spice, go for the red noodles!

    How long do you soak glass noodles?

    Rothy glass noodles are so easy to make! Unlike other dried wide noodles that need to soak in water before cooking for 4 to 8 hours, Rothy noodles don't need to soak before cooking. It's recommended that you boil the noodles for 7 to 8 minutes and then cook for 2 to 3 minutes more with the sauce.

    What other ways can I use glass noodles?

    You can basically substitute these noodles for other noodles, such as in tomato sauce recipes, cream sauce recipes,
