Fettuccine Pasta, 7 Oz (Pack of 6), Plant Based Shirataki Konjac Noodles, 5 Calories, 1g Net Carbs Per Serving, Keto, Gluten-Free

I used to love Italian food but I have to say I haven't had it in years. It never went well with my stomach and then I was diagnosed gluten intolerant. I always missed pasta and how easy it is to make and how filling it is but I definitely never missed the carbs or upset belly. I heard about this online and saw it for the first time at Whole Foods when I visited my mom though the brand was different. I loved how it was filling and easy, though it definitely doesn't taste anything like regular pasta. Since I don't have a Whole Foods around, I ordered these off line and they taste exactly the same as the other brand though are more translucent in color. Since I'm not used to normal pasta, I can't complain, though I will say my friends think its bland and gross in texture. The texture is weird..really rubbery but most Asian noodles are anyway. The taste is bland but not bad, the good thing with these noodles though is that they soak up whatever sauce you put on them extremely well. I make avocado garlic hummus and I mix that in with the noodles along with Parmesan cheese, marinara sauce. I bring it to school/work with me and I only taste the sauce, not the noodles so it tastes pretty good. However, if I eat it right away it doesn't taste as good. I heard cooking it on a skillet with sauce will allow the flavor to penetrate more into the noodles so they taste more like pasta though. If you bring these to work and won't eat them for a few hours, be aware not to use a lot of spices/garlic sauce or it will be an overkill. Also, when you first open the noodle package, it does smell like fish, I think its a natural preservative type thing. I put the noodles in a drainer and run water over them for 5 minutes and the smell goes away.

I wasn't prepared for the fact they came in a liquid. Weird. I was warned about the faint fish smell. Here's how I prepared them: Put 2-3 qt saucepan of salted water on to boil. Dumped contents into small colander and rinsed well. The slight fishy smell does not stay. It rinsed off. When water is rolling boil dump noodles. Cook three min exactly. Trust me. I also added garlic salt to water. Drain and put in glass bowl add whatever sauce you want. I used marinara. Coat noodles well. I put them in fridge and went to get in my 2 miles. So 1 hour later I was back. Don't judge me.... I had put a pan of the rest of marinara and 2 chicken breast on to simmer and it was bubbling nicely. I microwaved the noodles a min at a time till warm enough. Then poured hot chicken and sauce on top. Added some parm and we enjoyed every bit. What you need to know besides the above: The noodles have an obvious Asian texture. A bit like calamari without the taste or smell. Because of this I cut the long fettuccine noodles smaller. Smaller it not as bad texture wise. They are like tofu. No flavor but they absorb the flavor of sauces beautifully. That's why I put them in the fridge. Another thing. A 7 oz pkg is enough for 2. We cooked 2 packages and had twice as much as we needed. Most importantly. We had been craving pasta. While different, we were very happy with it! Trying Mac and cheese next. Boiling noodles in broth not water and using butter and cheese with a little broth for sauce.

Earlier this year, I started a wheat-free and low-carb, mostly grain-free Wheat Belly diet, and among the many the things I've been missing, one of the things that I've been craving the most is noodles/pasta, since its my favorite food after sushi, steak & shellfish Which is why I was SO glad to find Miracle Noodles ! Miracle Noodles are really a MIRACLE for those of us on low-carb & grain-free diets who love pasta. It is so wonderful to be able to have noodles again in at least some form -- even if it doesn't taste *exactly* like the conventional wheat-based versions. Especially since with this pasta, I never have to worry about the carb content or even the number of calories and yet its still DELICIOUS!! In response to other reviewers on this page who have complained that these noodles have a fishy smell.......they are only right, in that when you first open the noodle package, there IS a bit of a smell. However, as soon as I've emptied the noodles into a sieve or colander and rinsed it in water (I usually use warm-ish water) for a few minutes, any & all of the "fishy" smell immediately disappears. Also to all those people who have complained about the "rubbery" texture of these noodles........if you buy these noodles, and go into the experience expecting to get an EXACT REPLICA of the conventional wheat-based and carb-filled starchy noodles/pasta, then you are going to be SORELY disappointed! Because these noodles are NOT made with wheat or any other high-carb grain, they are NOT going to have the same starchy texture as conventional pasta. But that does NOT mean that they cannot be just as YUMMY in their own right! Miracle Noodles are made of a healthy natural water soluble fiber (that has NO fat, sugar, or starch) called Glucomannan, and konnyaku flour, which is made from the Konjac plant which has been used in Asia for thousands of years, and is wheat-free, gluten-free, kosher, and has ZERO net carbs and ZERO calories! However, Miracle Noodles are unique and UNLIKE the conventional (and usually wheat-based) versions of pasta, and as such, they cannot be made and consumed in the same way as regular pasta, and expected to taste the exact same. So, if you make these noodles expecting it to be just like regular spaghetti, where you just toss it in boiling water to cook it, and then drain out the water and mix it with tomato sauce and eat it, then not only will these noodles be a disappointment, but also you are missing out on the best potential of these noodles! However, if these are cooked according to the package directions (rinse thoroughly in clean water, boil in salted water for a few minutes, and fry it in a skillet long enough to remove any remaining water & moisture) and then used in appropriate recipes (although I've only used these noodles in soups and Asian stir-fry so far, I've heard that the fettucine noodles are really good in recipes of Alfredo sauce made with REAL butter, cream and parmesan cheese!) As someone who is currently on the Wheat Belly diet and unable to enjoy my 2nd favorite food (after sushi, steak and shellfish which all tie for the first place of my most favorite food!) of pasta & noodles, I think that Miracle Noodles are a wonderful substitute! Although I admit & agree that even when prepared properly, Miracle Noodles still do not taste *exactly* like regular pasta, given that it has ZERO carbs and ZERO calories, in my opinion its close enough and it is a GREAT alternative for those of us who LOVE pasta/noodles but for whatever reason (being gluten-free, wheat-free [or even grain-free!] or on low-carb diets) are unable to eat regular pasta, to be able to enjoy noodles again! I just wish there were an equivalent alternative for bagels and baguettes because then, instead of just staying on the Wheat Belly diet only long enough to meet specific goals (like weight-loss) like I'm going to be doing, I'd be a lot more willing stay on this diet permanently the way its developer, Dr. William Davis recommends making it a complete lifestyle change! Now if only Miracle Noodle could just come out with as great an alternative for chewy bagels and crusty baguettes, I'd be ALL SET!!

The miracle noodles are a staple in our house. We don't do a lot of carbs because they spike my blood sugar but I find that these are perfect for what I need. Tip: Marinate these!! They absorb flavours really well. I remove these from the package and rinse really well. Then I place them in a bowl of equal parts soy, sriracha, hoisin or other oyster-type sauce with rice vinegar. Cover and let marinate in fridge for about 2-3 hours. Lightly pan fry in a bit of peanut or sesame oil for 2 minutes (overcooking will cause them to have a rubbery texture). They make a great faux-soba noodle bowl. Perfect if you're doing Keto or other low carb regime.

For a no calorie, low carb food item, this is pretty good. When prepared properly, the fishy smell is 97% gone, if not completely gone. The texture reminds me of Korean potato noodles, but less chew. Or they're very similar in texture to jellyfish. They hold sauces quite well. Overall, a good noodle substitute if you're going Keto.

I have bought Miracle Noodles many times and loved them. I bought a case this time and they are NASTY! They're thinner than usual and no matter how long I boil them they are rubbery, chewy and unsalvageable. The photo I have attached is after a 2-3 minute boil trying to soften them. I'm hoping it's a bad batch because if they were always like this, the company would be out of business before long.

I have been buying these for a year now and have absolutely loved them as a pasta sub. However...when i opened the first package today of a new case i noticed the fettuccine was paper thin and wrinkled which is NOT what it normally looks like. Decided to open another package and they were exactly the same. Tried to cookem and see what happens and unfortunately they were completely inedible. Was like chewing on thin plastic so i unfortunately had to toss them out. Inspected the remaining 4 bags and they all appear to be the same. Pretty sure its a bad batch and I've had 4 cases prior to this that have been fine so i will give it another go and hope for good quality

They smell really bad when you first open the package but once you rinse them they are good. But they taste like nothing which is good, they take in the flavor of the sauce you use!! helps curb the craving for carbs in a stir fry, or whatever.
