I think I have to have noodles tonight but I'm a little sick of pasta.
It's been awhile since we've had bean thread noodles, also known as glass noodles.
They're kind of chewy and slurpy at the same time and just need a soak in warm water, no cooking.
We love them in Ants On A Tree, a delicious mix of the noodles with seasoned ground pork .
There is a good and simple recipe for this dish on Epicurious.com and you don't need exotic ingredients.
If you happen to live near an Asian market get some garlic chives and stir fry them quickly with garlic and a little drizzle of oyster sauce, or leave out the oyster sauce if you don't have it on it hand. They are crunchy, sweet, a little oniony.

  1. I tried to make fortune cookies once, maybe a half century ago. Complete disaster. Never again.
