Description

Kelp noodles and veggies galore drenched in a spicy Asian inspired almond ginger sauce. 100% raw and health promoting!

looks great . but i cant get over thought that kelp noodles taste as hideous as the kelp powder i use , lol .
guess i'll have to try the kelpnoodles some time

[Aleesha Sattva]

kelp noodles have zero taste MR. they are just rubbery long strings.

LOL

[michigan roman]

thanx aleesha . ive been wondering how people like the taste of nasty kelp .
guess i'll order some off amazon and try

[walnutty]

No, they do not have any taste at all. If you soak them in fresh lemon juice with salt (I used Real Salt) they completely lose their crunchiness and become the texture of SAD angel hair pasta. Until I learned that trick I thought they were gross! Now, I love them! Because it is uncertain if they are truly raw, though, I only eat them once every couple of weeks. Since a pound of kelp noodles is only 18 calories that would make me 99.99999999999999999999% raw when I eat them...lol...and I am fine with that!

[mpure]

that looks amazing..... I still haven't tried kelp noodles myself. it seems like they'd absorb flavors better than zucchini nooodles...!

[Aleesha Sattva]

i haven't had the experience of them absorbing flavour at all mpure. perhaps walnutty has had a different experience?

[walnutty]

I will have to check the next time I make something with them. I am not sure if they "absorb" the flavor or if the sauce just sits on top of them...great question!

Does anyone know where you can buy kelp noodles in Australia.
