Sometimes we’re a little behind the times. Like 2,000 years.
But we always catch up eventually.
Our latest obsession, which the Chinese have known about for two millennia, is called Miracle Noodle. And its name couldn’t be more accurate.
Made from the soluble fiber of the Konnyaku Imo root, these vegan pasta substitutes are absolutely incredible.
Of course, we were skeptical at first, but darn if they don’t have the same texture and mouthfeel of real pasta. And because they don’t have any real discernible flavor, they take on the characteristics of whatever sauce or broth you use.
The spaghetti version has zero calories, carbs, gluten or soy. They cook in two minutes, too.
Available in a variety of styles (including ziti, angel hair and “rice”), calories can go up to as much as 15 calories per serving, but we can burn that off on the elliptical machine in about three seconds.
So if you’re not willing to give up the satisfaction of eating a giant bowl of fettucini, but still want to look great naked, Miracle Noodle is the answer to your culinary prayers.
