Product Information

We take low FODMAP recipes seriously at FODMAP Everyday®. That’s why Dédé oversees our Test Kitchenand makes sure that each and every recipe works. We base our recipes on the lab test results of ingredients from Monash University and FODMAP Friendly that are available at the time of initial publication. You can use any of the lab tested findings, new or older, from either Monash University or FODMAP Friendly as a baseline from which to begin to explore your relationship with FODMAPs, which will be unique.

In India, glass noodles are called falooda (see falooda, the dessert dish), and are served on top of kulfi (a traditional ice cream). They are usually made from arrowroot starch using a traditional technique. The noodles are flavorless so they provide a nice contrast with the sweet kulfi. Kulfi and falooda can be bought from numerous food stalls throughout northern and southern parts of India.FODMAP Friendly has lab tested the following – and I have included their recommended serving sizes: Ramen noodles are a type of noodle that come from wheat flour, salt, water and sometimes eggs or oil depending on what kind you buy. They have very little nutritional value so it’s important to add lots of vegetables and other healthy foods when cooking them!

You use the starch to make the noodles. But what about the remaining gluten? Chinese cooks don’t let anything go to waste. They steam it ,slice it, and add it to the dish! It adds great textural contrast. (Find out more about this ingredient in our Kao Fu Braised Wheat Gluten recipe). If you cannot find Chinese celery, you can use regular celery instead. If you don't like the taste of celery, you can use Romain lettuce hearts as well. Make sure you finely slice it so that it is easier to mix and eat.

Add the chopped Chinese celery. Then, cover and cook for another minute before turning off the heat and serving. Heads up: I highly recommend to read the label before buying bean threads. There exist some types of Chinese glass noodles that are based on other starch sources (potato starch, sweet potato starch, rice starch etc.) that may not be as beneficial as mung bean starch. The ingredients don’t tell the story. As you can see from the image below, the ingredients are the same: rice flour and water. But we all know that they look completely different, whether raw or cooked:

Korean Glass Noodle Veggie Stir-Fry: From The Forked Spoon, ditch take out with this Korean Glass Noodle Veggie Stir-Fry. Simple ingredients, loads of veggies and just 25 minutes start to finish. Obviously how the noodles are made is a different process. We like European-style pasta for our capellini and macaroni and cheese, but like the Asian stylewhere called for. As always, we suggest using the pasta that is recommended in individual recipes. How Do I Know How Much Of The Raw Noodles To Cook?The Asian style rice noodles are more translucent, uncooked and cooked, and have a more slippery texture. Rice noodles are considered a functional food, as they have been shown to positively impact health when consumed regularly as part of a balanced diet. They are also a sustainable crop, as they are easy to grow and have a low environmental impact. Resistant starch works similarly to soluble fiber, as it helps nourish your healthy gut bacteria. The bacteria then digest it and turn it into short-chain fatty acids — butyrate, in particular ( 21).
