    Tried these last night and was so excited! I made mine with stir fried vegetables and peanut sauce...what a great way to have nutritious noodles without all the calories. Glad I knew to dry them well. - 3/2/11

    I'm so glad that you did this for others. I rinse mine up to 5 minutes under hot water and drain really well. These noodles are great in casseroles too. - 2/15/10
