These noodles are so chewy, paired with miso glazed Lion’s Mane, Boc Choi and Scallions this dish will surely satisfy your Asian food craving. Fresh udon noodles are best but these chlorella noodles are just as good and chewy! It can be found in your nearest Asian Market. Chewy noodles are always a satisfying way to infuse flavorful sauce into, also a great backdrop for our superfood favorite called Mushrooms! Having vegetarian oyster sauce helps a lot in elevating any noodle dish.
Chlorella Noodle
I used Sun Chlorella which can be found pretty much in asian grocery stores. The noodles were surprisingly chewy and with 2 grams of chlorella. Chlorella contains a range of nutrients, including proteins, omega-3 fatty acids, vitamins, and minerals, including antioxidants. I highly recommend checking them out. Cooks in minutes and the flavors you can combine them with is limitless. Better than noodles made of wheat flour, these chewy udon noodles.
