Description
Nutritionist Choice Potato and Bean Thread Noodles is a 135g packet of fine glass noodles made from just two ingredients, potato starch and mung bean starch. These are the noodles that turn clear as they cook and stay slippery and springy rather than soft, soaking up the broth or dressing around them. Soak them and use them in soups, hotpots, stir fries and cold salads. Mung bean is a legume, which is worth knowing if you avoid them.

Beans
Which beans should I choose?
Adzuki, mung, kidney, haricot and soya are each their own bean, so choose the one your dish calls for. Soak and cook them from dried when you have time, or reach for bean pasta, on the table in about ten minutes.

Is Beans right for you?
Common questions
Is bean pasta actually made of beans?
Mostly, yes. The common ones are milled black bean, edamame or mung bean, sometimes with a little rice flour or another binder to hold the shape. The blend varies by brand, so read the ingredients panel. What you're buying is the legume in a different shape, not a wheat pasta with beans added.
Are vanilla beans, cacao beans and coffee beans the same kind of thing?
No. They share the word and nothing else. Vanilla beans are orchid pods used for flavour, cacao and coffee beans are the seeds of quite different trees, and none of them is a legume you'd cook and eat like other beans. Each has its own page, so search for the name you want.
