What it is
These are thin, delicate noodles infused with the subtle flavor and color of Japanese green tea. They are made from rice flour, giving them a light texture that cooks quickly.

To prepare, bring a pot of water to a rolling boil. Add the green tea noodles and cook for a short time, usually just a few minutes, until they are tender but still have a slight bite. Be careful not to overcook them, as they can become mushy. Drain the noodles thoroughly and rinse them under cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent them from sticking together. They are now ready to be incorporated into your favorite recipes, whether tossed with sauces, added to broths, or served chilled.
