Kenmin Rice Vermicelli Noodles

Regular price $9.95

While many vermicelli noodles—a long, slender variety of rice noodle—may seem like forgettable fare, these Rice Vermicelli Noodles from Kenmin stand out from the pack. Made by steaming and mashing rice to form ultra-thin, chewy, springy noodles, these vermicelli cook up glassy in appearance and almost elastic in texture, with a mild rice flavor. They particularly shine in herby soups or punchy broths or dressings featuring bold flavors, like lime and fish sauce, as the noodles absorb the flavors of the surrounding dish.

Making these noodles takes a high amount of skill: They’re made from 100% pure, carefully selected, high-quality rice grown in rich soil, without any salt, additives or binders (which makes their impeccable texture and mild aromatic flavor all the more impressive). In fact, these vermicelli noodles from Kenmin earn a certification mark from the Rice Vermicelli Association—an honor reserved for vermicelli made from over 50% rice. Exclusive to Milk Street in the United States.

Add rice noodles to boiling water. Break apart with chopsticks. Allow to boil for various times depending on intended use.

For grilled rice noodles, soup, etc. boil for 4 minutes. For salads, aemono, etc. boil for 6-7 minutes.

Once cooked, drain in a colander, rinse with cool water, and then squeeze out the moisture. If stir frying, add a small amount of oil to prevent noodles from sticking.

 So nice, they steam them twice.
