If you soak the kelp noodles in lemon juice and baking soda for a few minutes, it softens them making them amazing. My favourite noodles are from Anne at Keto Asian Flavors. I believe she is working on selling them as ready made-noodles.

Correct. Kelp noodles must be soaked in warm water with lemon juice and baking soda to give them a pasta texture. Otherwise they are crispy. The longer they soak, the more like pasta. I soak mine for a minimum of 10 minutes.

Warning for anyone allergic to peanuts, it's possible for you to also be allergic to lupin beans/flour. It's not absolute - you could also be allergic to other beans, talk to your doctor. I bring this up because it's not common but my daughter is allergic to peanuts, garbanzo beans (chickpeas) and lupin beans/flour. Only after the reactions were we told they're all connected but it's not common to be allergic to them all. Anyway, just trying to help out anyone with allergies.

I recently found a keto skillet lasagna recipe that used a noodle made with just mozzarella & psyllium powder. Super easy recipe because the noodles didn't have to be cooked. I used grated mozzarella, sprinkled the psyllium powder on then melted the cheese & stirred. I let it cool a little before pouring it onto parchment to roll out & cut into squares for the skillet lasagna. I made them about the thickness of cooked lasagna noodles. They were great.

I've used the kelp noodles and you need to prepare them with water, baking soda and lemon. They soften up, but you have to stir them around in the water until they are softened to your liking then rinse them thoroughly before using. I use them to make stuffed chicken wings and you'd never notice them at all. They absorb the taste of whatever they're added to. I prefer them to the shirotaki noodles.

I have found that the immi noodles are softer and less springy if you soak them for a couple of hours in the water that you cook them in ( without either of the packets - flavor or desiccate - lol)- they go well in chicken noodle soup or with Italian sauces. I have chosen as a cheat for myself though, Fiber Gourmet pastas- one serving is 17 net carbs, BUT I can usually get at least three servings for myself out of that one serving so I don't feel too badly about it, plus, I only eat once a day- so it works for me. Tastes like and cooks like regular pasta- and.. you can freeze the cooked noodles which with the shiraroki type noodles is a no no!

The edamame pasta is so delicious. I got a bag from a company called Liviva which they call spaghetti, but it's angel hair. Cook them a bit longer than the package says. If you get tricked into taking them out too early they will just taste like uncooked spaghetti. They do have 17 carbs 15 of which are fiber. Ingredients are organic edamame and water. I cooked them then sauced them with butter, garlic, finely grated parm reg., and lots of black pepper and finely chopped parsley. Tonight I think I'm going to add a serving of big fat shrimp. I can't wait. I am also going to have a new glucose monitor sensor now so that I can see how my body accepts the edamame pasta. I really hope it does, because it was definitely much more pastalike than the Palmini. I bought another brand of edamame fettuccini, which I will try later this week.

Great information, thank you! With the konjac noodles, immediately upon opening the bag, I simply squeeze about a tablespoon of lemon juice into the bag (I have opened just a part of the bag to get the lemon in so the stinky smell remains inside the bag). Then, give the noodles a shake and squeeze before straining and rinsing. The smell is literally GONE immediately when the lemon is added. I have also done this with pouring the noodles into a strainer and squeezing lemon juice whilst rinsing. This method also works of course but I do get that small initial smell of the noodles. So whatever I can do to avoid that is optimal! This was a massive game changer, simply adding lemon. I DO prefer to chop the longer noodles with scissors as I find that I notice the more rubbery texture if left so long. I have made everything you can think of with konjac noodles. Here in Australia they have lasagna sheets, not sure if those are available in the US. I've made lasagna, but also, I have used them to make Vietnamese style fresh spring rolls which I loved, and still intend to try making dumplings, I need to figure out the seal though, to keep them held into the parcel shape. Also, I have simply rinsed, not even bothered to cook off the moisture and they're great. But definitely wouldn't do that if I hadn't pre rinsed with lemon juice because the smell is noxious!! I'm definitely going to try the palm. Those I have been very curious about. In the US I was in Alaska and discovered konjac penne pasta at Safeway in the regular pasta section, not the health food area. Those are fantastic!! Can't find them in Australia though unfortunately. One of the things I just LOVE about these konjac noodles and rice is that they're so portable. I've literally grabbed a quick picnic of canned tuna or salmon, a baggie with some simple seasoning I'm in the mood for, some shredded cheese, I tend to have a basic prepper items like a small mct oil for picnics, my lemon, bag of konjac and I'm good to go. Honestly, with the exception of the cheese, the other items are grab n go from the pantry. Picnic on the beach can be so simple and tasty. Thank you for this great video.

I have not tried the spaghetti yet as I absolutely detested the rubbery texture of the penne with cheese sauce. If it would've broken up easier while chewing then possibly I wouldn't have minded it but it was too chewy and rubbery...and flavorless! Perhaps it needs to be cooked longer than the directions called for, but as a replacement for penne pasta, I give it a -10!

You have to soften the kelp noodles in water to which you add an acid and a base (like lemon juice and baking soda).

Thanks - Very good. Bottom line, however, is that everyone has different likes/desires for Texture and Taste. I have tried all these and summarily say that (1) I don't like any noodle that is rubbery, (2) don't like any noodle that I have to make from scratch, and (3) I am not going to do a lot of processes to fix noodles that smell like fish guts when I first open the package. I. personally, prefer the Great Low Carb Bread Co noodles. The major challenge to this, however is price and net carbs. I can do 7 Carbs easily as long as I fast the next day. I really don't like the ridiculous expense: but hey it's worth it to have a good spaghetti dinner once every two weeks. What I am saying is don't try to be zero carbs and enjoy a great spaghetti dinner. "If you eat it - you should enjoy it". And you can do this without breaking ketosis and loving to eat a good spaghetti.

Yam fiber is Shirataki. some brands add oat fiber to it to change the color and texture a bit.

I used your 10% choc-zero coupon. Thanks! (KETOFOCUS is the coupon-code) I researched that ChocZero uses monk fruit, instead of sugar alcohols. I had been using one with sugar alcohols and wasn't feeling great after eating those chips.

Hearts of palm is my favorite also. I’m gluten free but even if I wasn’t I enjoy the hearts of palm. To me they taste most similar to bamboo shoots. But a lot better haha. Thanks for another great video!

I agree! Hearts of palm for me, as well. But, most of the time, I just don’t bother. It’s just me eating it so I don’t need to worry about the expectations of others for something to look or taste or feel a certain way. I heat up (and drain well) canned French cut green beans and eat my pasta sauce over those if I’m looking for spaghetti with sauce. They have the right mouth feel, don’t really have much distinct flavor against a meat-heavy sauce with grated cheese, add some veggies and are cheap and inexpensive. I stockpile them when they’re on sale - my faves are Del Monte, regular or low sodium. I do like the Palmini lasagna sheets. I had been making noodle-less lasagna for 15 years and was perfectly happy until two years ago when I saw that Palmini was making lasagna noodles. I added them in and layered things and they were fine. I wasn’t ever much of a fan of using eggplant slices, etc to replace the noodles so it was an option to add that mouthfeel back. I still mostly make my lasagna noodle-less, but every so often I get the urge!

I love the hearts of palm. I find the longer the pasta is in the sauce the better the taste, soaks up the flavors of the sauce.

There is another one by "Thin Slim foods" 8 net carbs per 2 oz serving but they taste good

I find it helps to boil the shiratake noodles for about 10 minutes to help with the texture.

Artichokes are from a ground plant not a tree. I too like hearts of palm. I love the earthy smell or taste it has. thanks so much for doing all the comparison work for us! I have loved your videos since 2017❤️

After you rinse the noodles bring the ph levels back to normal with 2 tablespoons of white vinegar in 2 cups of cold water. Soak the noodles for 2 minutes in the vinegar water, then re-rinse. The smell is totally gone. Also, you have to try Wonder Noodles ! They are the best in my opinion.

Healthy Noodle from Costco FTW. Fettucine type noodle with no weird smell or texture. Works great in an alfredo or marinara sauce.

Geez, I thought the Healthy Noodles had the taste and texture of wet cardboard! I returned the remaining package to Costco for a refund. 🤮 LOVE the recipe from Keto Asian Flavors, or Serious Keto version. Make a big batch, keeps in the fridge for a couple weeks.

We use the Healthy Noodles from Costco, they are a Soy fiber and Konjac noodle. zero net carb. They don't smell funny like other Konjac noodles.

I was hoping for a little more detail on the taste and texture of these. Most were just rated on how well they go with a sauce, without many notes on their flavor and bite.

FYI The wonder noodles are 1 carb per ounce. 7 carbs per serving, according to the package.

have you tried the Banza chickpea pasta? Gluten free but not low carb... was wondering if some of these are better than that. I buy trader joes heart of palm pasta and like it ok but honestly prefer spaghetti squash. not always in season tho...

If you dry cook the shiritaki noodles until they start “squeaking” as you stir them, that rubbery texture goes away.
