I love shirataki noodles, HOWEVER, if you look at the package, they are fully cooked, simply need to be rinsed, drained, & patted dry. They’re a great alternative for people looking for lo-carb noodles. You can heat them gently, but if you go much beyond that, they’ll become rubbery. Be sure you drain them well.

video shows me rinsing them and doing all of that. only 5 minutes long

These are fantastic for making a lo-carb shrimp Alfredo, also a great tuna noodle casserole. Love those things, they’re guilt free eating!
