Choosing & preparing noodles
How to choose
Match the noodle to the dish: rice noodles for pho and pad thai, wheat or egg noodles for stir-fries and ramen-style soups. Fresh noodles cook in moments; dried keep for months.
Prep & storage
Slightly undercook noodles destined for a stir-fry or hot soup, since they keep softening. Rinse and toss with a little oil to stop them clumping while the rest of the dish comes together.
When is it done?
Most noodles want a tender but springy bite; rice noodles often just need soaking in hot water rather than a hard boil.
Nutrition
A carbohydrate energy base; egg noodles add a little protein, while rice noodles are naturally gluten-free.
Classic flavour partners: soy sauce, ginger, garlic, sesame, spring onion, chilli
