4. How do I cook the noodles properly?
The recommended cooking times vary between the noodle types. Please follow the instructions on the back of the packaging (or on our website product pages) for recommend cooking times based on the noodle type. Not cooking the noodles to at least the recommended cooking time typically yields a slimy, doughy consistency of under-cooked noodle similar to when a pasta is not cooked all the way through. The cooking time varies per noodle; Tainan 2 mins, Mandarin 3 mins, Hakka 4 mins, Knife cut 5 mins.
5. Can I cook the noodles in the microwave?
Yes, A-Sha Noodles can be cooked in the microwave. Please ensure that a microwave safe bowl is used and is large enough to hold the noodle block. The noodle block should be submerged in an adequate amount of water (fully covering the noodle block in the bowl). Do not cover the microwave safe bowl in order to avoid boil over. Microwave cooking times vary for each noodle type; Tainan 3 mins, Mandarin 4 mins, Hakka 5 mins, and Guanmiao is not suggested to cook in the microwave due to the thickness of the noodle.
