Ingredients
  

For the Gluten-Free Noodles
  • 2 cups gluten-free rice flour This is the base of our noodles, giving them that lovely chewy texture.
  • 1/2 cup tapioca starch It helps bind the noodles and adds a delightful elasticity.
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt A little seasoning goes a long way in enhancing the flavors.
  • 3/4 cup water This hydrates the flour and helps form the dough.
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil It adds moisture and richness to the noodles.
