SKINNY PASTA Angel Hair - Healthy Konjac Shirataki Noodles, Low Carb Keto Pasta, Gluten Free, 6 Pack

Really like this. The longer you stir fry the better it tastes. ( No funky smell) just rinse lightly. Let it dry some. And it’s ready to go.

I say IF, because konjac / shiritaki noodles are rubbery. That's just how they are, similar to (maybe the same as?) the glass noodles in some Asian soups. If you are prepared for that and don't expect them to have the mouth feel of rice or pasta, it will be a better experience. They will not 'melt' into mush no matter how long you chew them. I actually like the extra toothiness, they last longer in my mouth and that longer chew means more satisfaction with less food. These particular noodles are excellent - they are as flavorless as expected, AND, as I didn't dare hope, actually Odorless. Most of the brands I've tried before upset my cat. (I Hear him in my head:. Oh yeah, oh yeah, it's the shrimp, it's the ... what the fishy heck, why are showing me This, where is my food?) Phew! I'm not a fussy eater and I know the stink won't carry over into the taste but let's be honest, it's revolting. I actually haven't purchased konjac for years because I didn't want that nasueating hurdle, and I'm delighted it's gone. The product arrived on time and intact, and I was satisfied with the first two bags I've opened. They did stick together a bit at first and I feared the dreaded "Jello of Death" - extremely annoying for something that costs at least five times more than pasta - but they quickly broke into strands and were fine. The package size is a little frustrating, too big for one serving and a bit stingy for two. An extra ounce of product would be great.

I am a long time consumer of shirataki noodles of all shapes and sizes. There are a lot of brands available, and most are nearly the same. SO if you have never had shirataki (konjac root) noodles, then please know that they are not the same as traditional pasta. They all have a rubbery texture. If you are really desperate to reduce cals and carbs, these are worth the try. I find them enjoyable, especially in soups, simple veg/protein dishes, and Asian cuisine preparations. I have never cared for it prepared in Italian cuisine. It doesnt work for me. It is ok is used to cut into the traditional pasta (maybe like 50-50 of each). Taste is neutral, and while this brand has zero odor, many other brands do. If you find that any of them have an odor, just be sure to rinse well. Problem fixed. So I bought this specific brand after trying their ultra magical Skinny Pasta cups of Soup . It somehow doesnt taste or feel like a shirataki product that is truly reduced in sodium (80 mg). It makes a lot, and hits the spot- fills my belly with very little calories, and feels glorious to consume on a cold winter day. I digress.. but I cant help but goosh my love for it. Pricy, but so good. So because it is so pricy, I figured maybe I could make my own cup of soup using their noodles. I wanted theirs because another brand I decided to try was absolutely terrible (I say they are nearly all the same, but occasionally a terribad one slips through. I do not recommend any version of ASIN:B07ZVDP46K shirataki noodles]] )). Well, these dont quite fit what I am looking for, BUT they are very good as far as shirataki noodles go. I eat a bowl of them as I write this review. I emptied the packet into a strainer, gave them a good rinse, then placed them in a bowl of with boiled water. Then I drained, added low sodium broth powder, other seasonings, dehydrated vegetables. Let it sit, then have been eating it like a bowl of soup. All for like 25 calories! I may try their spaghetti shape to see if I can get this closer to their Skinny Pasta soup. But really, I will likely have to just buy more of their soup. Which is amazing. If they can make some shirtaki noodles that mimic what they use in their soup.. oh my. In the mean time, this is pretty good.

I loved these! They are very reminiscent of Ramen noodles, without the calories or carbs. Texture was fine - just a bit chewier than ramen, but not much. I tasted them "plain" out of the package (rinsed first), and was surprised to find they are great! I was hesitant, and I rarely like "diet" foods, but these are amazing! I've only tied the "noodle" shaped ones so far, but.... no fishy smell at all (I've read comments on that for other brands), the texture is nice - not as chewy as I feared. I used them first in a lower calorie, low carb macaroni and cheese (substituted pureed butternut squash cooked in skim milk and chicken broth with garlic) for most of the cheese, and it was delicious! The noodle shape was a bit strange for Mac & Cheese. I with they would produce these with more variety of shapes, like regular pasta, but the taste was great. Yes, they are bland, but most pasta is. Pasta seems to be more about the sauces, and these absorb the flavor of whatever you put them in. I'll update this review when I have tried other shapes, but first run was very successful, and I'm already re-ordering, as I know I'm going to be using these in quite a few recipes.

After not being able to eat pasta on my low carb diet, I decided to order Skinny Pasta. I didn’t know what to expect and I was so happy to discover that I love this product! It comes precooked in sealed pouches and the noodles have zero unpleasant odor. When mixed with sauces, Skinny Pasta provides a wonderful alternative to high carb high calorie traditional pasta. The noodles take on the flavor of the sauce and they are also very filling for almost zero calories. This product is perfect for diabetics, Keto and low carb dieters, and anyone following the Weight Watcher’s program. While Skinny Noodles are smaller and have a slightly different texture than traditional pasta, they are an absolutely wonderful pasta replacement for persons who want to reduce carbs or lose weight. Just remember to mix them with sauces to add flavor to them. I have already reordered this product twice and hope that Skinny Pasta remains on the market permanently!

So here’s my story. I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes 12 yrs ago. As a restauranteur (40 yrs recently retired) it was a challenge to stay on point taking care of myself, food being my Achilles heel. Over time I tried everything I came across to mimic or recapture tastes and textures I love that I really can’t have without a price. I have tried so many things to recapture the taste/feel etc of my beloved noodles. Pasta, Cellophane, Ramen … you get the idea. I’ve spent hundreds of $ buying every product, trying every recipe I could find with unfortunately miserable results. There seemed to be nothing that wasn’t a disappointment. They smelt bad, were mushy or had an unpleasant aftertaste. Then the cravings would take over so I’d rationalize, have a meal or 2 or more and the BG police would show up. (Diabetics will get that.) After hours on Amazon searching, checking stars and reading reviews, buying products, and filling my garbage bags I stumbled upon Konjac noodles. The ratings were in the usual zone of most like them but… like - Not for me, no taste, packaging problems, to expensive… But their were the others and the pictures that resembled almost a ramen cellophane noodle and here I go again $. I returned from the gym starving and the box was sitting by the door. I grabbed it read everything and realized all I really had was a little bit of a lot of stuff. I had a can of low salt stewed tomatoes, 2 older green onions, a handful of spinach, and about 6 mushrooms , and couple of day old chunks of a steak dinner. Into the sauté pan with you all. A bit of butter, olive oil, garlic, seasonings and spices with the last teaspoon of a tube of tomato paste squeezed out with a wood spoon handle. Rinse the noodles 3 times in warm water, shake the water out, toss in another pan with a tad of evvo to temp and combine. Taste buds drum roll, thinking how I’m gonna eat the sauce from around the noodles when I don’t like them and BAM! Did I just like them? Wait, what, again, and again and again. Their not mushy, they don’t smell, their kind of wait, their al dente. Holy smokes did I just find something I’ve been looking for for 12 years? A darn sure did and I enjoyed the heck out of them. Are they a perfect substitute. Nope, they don’t really have any particular flavor. But that’s ok. They also don’t absorb the liquid around them but maybe if I sauté them a bit more or ensure my sauces are thicker, who cares. I really like them. And then the options start rolling through my mind. Ramen soup, stir fry, pad woon zen, scampi… The price isn’t low, but I’ll deal with that. Just look at that nutritional information, my diabetes monster can just shut the hell up. I’ve found something I really enjoyed and that’s enough for me. If you try them I hope they work out as well for you as they did for me. - Cheers! Oh and I just found a recipe for Crazy Keto Dough, wish me luck!

Didn’t care the texture or feel of this

Color is clear white not the more yellowish color of ordinary pasta, but it is good and does not stick together like another low carb pasta I have eaten.
