Udon Noodles
Varieties
Udon may be made from corn and wheat flour, or wheat and rice flour.
Preparation, Uses, & Tips
Add noodles a few at a time to boiling water. To prevent noodles from sticking to the bottom of the pan, stir gently until the water returns to a rapid boil. Cook dried noodles for eight to ten minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water to stop cooking (fresh noodles should be cooked for only three to five minutes). Toss with tahini dressing and serve chilled, or top with stir-fried vegetables.
Storing
Store dried, unopened, noodles in a cool, dry cupboard for six to eight months. Store fresh udon noodles in the refrigerator, and use within a few days.
