Mung Bean & Pea Vermicelli, 400g · OOMAME

These Longkou noodles from Shuangta Food are the kind of product it's always good to have in the pantry. This is a classic Chinese vermicelli in Longkou style, in a 400-gram package, with a delicate and pleasant texture that becomes transparent after soaking or brief cooking. It's a noodle that gives a lighter feel than wheat noodles, but still holds up well in a hot or cold dish and brings with it a very recognizable texture of Chinese and broader Asian cuisine.

It is very suitable for noodle soups, hot pots, stir-fries, cold salads, spring rolls, and dishes where you want a noodle that absorbs sauce and broth without overpowering the dish. According to the product details, the base is mung bean starch and pea starch, which connects well with its smooth and elastic texture. This is exactly the kind of ingredient that works well in simple everyday cooking and in Asian dishes with more depth and character.

Tips
For quick soaking, you can soften them in hot water for a few minutes and then add them to soup, a wok, or sauce right at the end. In soups and hot pots, they work excellently because they absorb flavor well, and in cold salads, they give a very light and pleasant texture. To maintain the texture, it is best not to overcook them.
