If you refuse noodles, spaghetti and pasta because they are harmful to your figure, you can prepare funchose or, as it is also called, “Chinese glass noodles.” Its similarity to regular pasta is limited only by its appearance and ease of preparation. But as for the products from which funchose is made, the differences are striking.

Glass noodles were originally made from mung bean starch (another name is mung bean). When it entered the diet of residents of other Asian countries, they began to use starch obtained from processing potatoes, yams, cassava and other legumes for this purpose.

In modern production, in order to reduce the cost of the final product, the manufacturer sometimes uses corn starch as an additive.

Funchoza and rice noodles are not the same thing: rice noodles become white when cooked, while glass noodles become transparent (hence the name).

The noodle production process boils down to kneading dough (starch and water), which is then rolled out and passed through molding holes, the diameter of which determines the length and thickness of the threads, or cut and dried, and then packaged in sealed bags.

The composition and nutritional value of funchose is largely determined by the properties of the original product. The calorie content of high-quality dry glass noodles is approximately 320 kcal. When boiling, due to the saturation of the fibers with moisture, most calories are lost and this figure decreases to 80-84 kcal.

100 g of boiled (finished) product contains:

Name Weight
Squirrels 0.35 g
Fats 0.1 g
Carbohydrates 24.35 g

Nutritional composition:

  • B vitamins;
  • a nicotinic acid;
  • trace elements (zinc, selenium, copper);
  • macroelements (magnesium, calcium, iron, potassium, phosphorus).

Benefits and harms

In China, it is still believed that funchose can prolong life, and the longer the noodles, the more pronounced the effect of longevity.


The positive qualities of the product are due to its composition:

  • only natural ingredients of raw materials;
  • a large percentage of “slow carbohydrates” that provide the body with energy for a long time;
  • the ability to normalize and maintain optimal body fat mass;
  • the presence of components that help accelerate cell growth and development;
  • the absence of gluten, which makes glass noodles a very attractive product for people whose bodies are unable to process gluten;
  • a rich vitamin complex, thanks to which funchose, when consumed regularly, normalizes cholesterol levels, strengthens the nervous system, cleanses blood vessels, improves the functioning of the gastrointestinal tract and slows down the aging process.

There are no contraindications for high-quality glass noodles subject to its reasonable consumption in combination with other products. No matter how rich funchose is in vitamins, micro- and macroelements, it is not able to fully provide the human body with everything it needs.

If we talk about the dangers of funchose, then it lies entirely on the conscience of the manufacturer. For example, in 2004, a lead-based bleach was discovered in a Chinese product, which was used to remove the yellowish tint resulting from the addition of cheap varieties of corn starch to the feedstock. In 2010, aluminum was found in funchose in the Czech Republic.

Eating funchose stored for a long time in unsealed packaging can also cause harm: it quickly becomes damp and becomes an ideal food for pathogens.

It’s easy to avoid purchasing a low-quality product: just buy noodles from reliable sellers:

  • do not buy goods with illegible (or written exclusively in foreign languages) labels on the packaging;
  • carefully study the composition of the product: bean starch should be first on the list;
  • check the date of manufacture and the tightness of the pack;
  • give preference to noodles produced by famous brands.


High-quality funchose:

  • has a white or slightly gray (not yellow) color;
  • lacks shine;
  • becomes transparent when boiled;
  • its individual threads do not stick together;
  • dry noodles are hard and brittle, but do not crumble into dust at every touch;
  • From the smell, only a subtle nutty or bean aroma is acceptable.

Is funchose useful for losing weight?

Glass noodles are made from starch and have a high carbohydrate content, but are classified as dietary products that promote weight loss. The starch included in its composition is resistant: that is, it does not break down in the small intestine and does not replenish subcutaneous fat reserves, but enters the large intestine almost unchanged.

Here it becomes food for bacteria responsible for metabolic processes, including the process of “burning” fats.

Thanks to this, funchose, unlike regular pasta, can and should be consumed by overweight people, because it:

  • will provide the body with energy;
  • dulls the feeling of hunger;
  • will speed up the disposal of fat deposits.

Is it possible to recover from funchose?

All the beneficial qualities of glass noodles will appear provided that they are consumed in reasonable quantities and with the “right” (weight loss) foods: vegetables, seafood, lean meat.

If you neglect this rule and enjoy funchose in too large quantities, combining it with baked goods, sweets, fatty fish and meat, and foods rich in “fast” carbohydrates, then the effect will be exactly the opposite.

Rules for preparing the product

The determining criterion when choosing a method for preparing glass noodles is the thickness of the threads and the characteristics of the dish that will subsequently be prepared from it.


Cooking rules:

  1. Funchoza must be cooked in a large wide saucepan, taking into account that at least 1 liter of water is needed to cook 100 g of dry product.
  2. Before boiling the noodles, you need to salt the water. Salt is not used if funchose is subsequently used to prepare a salad with soy sauce or any other salty seasoning.
  3. To prevent individual threads from sticking together, odorless vegetable oil is added to the cooking water (20 ml of oil per 1 liter of water).
  4. Thick noodles, the cross-sectional diameter of which exceeds 1 mm, should be boiled by placing in boiling water for 3-4 minutes. For particularly wide noodles, increase the time by 1 minute.
  5. Funchose spider web should be poured with boiling water and left for several minutes, then placed in a colander and rinsed.
  6. If the product is used in the form of skeins, then before cooking they are tied with a thread, which is removed after cooking and washing. Then the noodles are cut into pieces of the required length.
  7. The noodles should not be overcooked: they should be soft but still crispy. Funchoza cooked for too long loses its shape.

Glass noodles are made from starch and therefore have the special exception of being completely tasteless and able to absorb any flavors. It is equally applicable for first and main courses, salads and desserts.

Glass noodle recipe video

Glass noodles in soy sauce with vegetables and pork:

Hello, my dears. I want to offer you a recipe today 2 in 1. At the beginning of the topic, I’ll risk offering you a little information about this miracle - in case someone might be interested. Although this vermicelli is not such a miracle today, but, as they say, everything is clear, but what exactly ?
In common parlance, it has the nickname “glass noodles” because it resembles elastic transparent glass threads, and after cooking it becomes completely transparent. Many people call “funchoza” a dish of Chinese or Korean cuisine, and it is also prepared from rice noodles, which after cooking becomes similar to simple spaghetti. It's a delusion. That's what noodles are called. They also talk about its starch or legume origin. My source states that funchose is exclusively a rice product. And just rice noodles differ from, in fact, funchose - in the method of production.
So, funchose is made from rice, and therefore is also the basis of longevity. It is considered a legendary means of raising the body's strength. The legendary Japanese heroes - “ninjas” - ate funchose.
Funchoza comes from China (there it is called fun-tu-ji), and was brought to Soviet Central Asia by Chinese Muslims - the Dungans. This vermicelli is especially popular in Southeast Asia. Funchoza itself is ideal in terms of diets; it will not force the body to store fat, will quickly saturate it and promote longevity. But you shouldn’t get carried away with salads with it in restaurants - funchoza is elastic, soft, filling and at the same time tasteless and colorless noodles, which, to add piquancy and taste, are often seasoned with a large amount of soy sauce and many additives, often fatty, spicy and high in calories. We get the opposite effect. Prepare it yourself at home, add exactly as much oil as you need. Yes, and I’ll tell you how to save money on soy sauce. Many chefs consider funchose an ideal side dish for any food, and this is deservedly so! After all, it has the ability to absorb all tastes, smells and even color. Add it to Korean carrots, let it brew, and it will turn a pleasant soft orange. Vermicelli fits perfectly into almost all dishes, from salads to hot meat and fish dishes, the main thing is to not let the funchose stick together and dry out when “assembling” the dish. And also let it cool completely!!! Otherwise, you risk not getting true pleasure from using it. Based on these principles, we get the cooking method - boil!!!. And then we receive a warning - do not overcook!!! And, of course, do not rinse with cold water. Preparing the funchose itself takes a few minutes - just pour it into boiling water for 3-5 minutes and strain through a colander with small drops.
Well, now we have come to the action itself - preparing two dishes based on our beautiful funchose.

I'll treat you to something hot for lunch today,

Step-by-step recipe with photos

and tomorrow you are welcome to everyone for breakfast.
For preparing hot


Funchoza I have two bundles...so what if there are three in the photo, they created a bunch there, the three of them are more beautiful
Meat I have half a kilo of pork, marinated in homemade mayonnaise... I had to add it
Onion medium onion... not necessarily blue, but so beautiful with it
Carrot lope and onions
Daikon lope and carrots
Cucumber skok and daikon
Chili pepper not a bunch of onions, carrots, daikon and cucumber, but according to your taste... I have two peppers
Garlic I mangled three teeth and crushed two
Soy sauce about a tablespoon
Rice vinegar a couple of tablespoons... feel free to change it to apple, or even balsamic
And prepared it right away for breakfast


Carrot twice as much as onions, see above
Daikon lope and carrots on this plate
Cucumber everything is correct, skok and daikon
For breakfast, it is better to cut the multi-colored vegetables larger to preserve the crunchiness of the vegetables for the morning salad.
Consistency is a must to get a tasty dish.
1 Fill everything up as in the photo. Please note that the onion is not cut across, but lengthwise - the knife goes along the nose-butt line
2 Let the wok heat up.
3 Boil a kettle of water for funchose.
4 Pour vegetable oil into a heated wok and wait for the smoke.
5 Now we grab a plate with vegetables and throw a carrot on the bottom, immediately onion on it, and daikon on it. And mix.
6 Now garlic dives into this company and gets in the way... I mean, gets mixed up...
7 And now we’ll add cucumber and pepper to them, quickly combine them and put everything in a large bowl.
We try to leave the oil in the wok.
8 The crushed garlic is gone, the meat is gone, if it gurgles, throw the meat up, that is, onto the walls of the wok, let it rest, wait for dry “weather”. It no longer gurgles, but squeaks? A minute or two, we drive the meat along the bottom, soy sauce and 1 spoon Sprinkle with vinegar, sprinkle with beauty, in a resting bowl, add salt to taste, stir for a couple of seconds


and return the whole company to the bowl.
Now put the saucepan on the stove, add boiling water to it, for faster boiling, add salt.
Is it boiling? We throw funchoza,


and we follow. At first it becomes transparent in a dotted line, then almost all of it. Then it will boil. Now pick up the thread and try it - if you feel the rubberiness, then it’s too early for it to reach the shore. And as soon as you feel a pleasant elasticity that does not interfere with chewing the thread in a couple of seconds, that’s what you need. Drain into a sieve. Shake it, dry it, and add it to the meat-onion-carrot-daikon-guerie dressing.

Not every Russian housewife is yet familiar with this oriental product, but funchose is definitely worth a try - healthy and tasty noodles are usually enjoyed by absolutely everyone, and the fact that they are also very light, but at the same time satisfying, makes it a wonderful product in all respects .

Funchoza is thin rice or starch noodles (mung bean, sweet potato, potato, canna, yam, corn or cassava starch is used for preparation). Often these noodles are also called glass noodles due to the characteristic transparency that they acquire after cooking.

One of the main advantages and striking feature of funchose is that it does not have a pronounced taste and absorbs the aromas of the products with which it is prepared. Soups, salads, and deep-fried dishes are prepared with funchose; it harmonizes perfectly with meat, fish, seafood, vegetables and various fragrant and spicy additives. Funchose dishes can be either hot or cold; many salads and snacks are prepared with it.

How to cook funchose

To prepare a delicious salad with funchose or an appetizer, first of all, these noodles need to be properly boiled.

If your funchose has a diameter of up to 0.5 mm, you just need to pour boiling water over it, cover with a lid and leave for 5 minutes, then drain the water, but if the noodles are thicker, then they are cooked in the same way as regular noodles - dipped in salted boiling water, but boiled no more than 3-4 minutes.

Overcooked funchose will be soggy, and undercooked funchose will stick to the teeth; properly boiled glass noodles will be soft, but slightly crunchy.

To prevent the funchose from sticking together during cooking, you need to add vegetable oil to the water at the rate of 1 tbsp. for 1 liter of water.

If you bought funchose in the form of “skeins”, you need to prepare it as follows: tie the skein with thread, pour water into a deep saucepan (1 liter of water per 100g of noodles), put 1 tsp. salt and 1 tbsp. vegetable oil (based on 1 liter of water), bring to a boil, lower the skein of noodles, boil for 3-4 minutes, drain in a colander, place under cold running water, then take by the thread and shake to drain excess water, place on a cutting board board, remove the thread, cut the funchose crosswise using a sharp knife into strips of the desired length.

Funchoza can be combined with a lot of products - you can add fried meat, fish, chicken, stewed, fried or fresh vegetables cut into pieces, all kinds of sauces, seasonings, spices.

Funchoza with meat and vegetables


What we need:

300 grams of meat

Half a pack of glass noodles

100 grams of pickled “Korean” carrots

One medium cucumber

Half a medium sweet pepper

3 cloves garlic

SMChP - freshly ground black pepper ( I didn't know myself)

Olive oil for frying and dressing

Soy sauce

Cut the meat into thin strips and fry in a hot frying pan in olive oil.

It should be cooked through and golden brown, although the degree of browning can be adjusted to taste.

You can add a little salt to the meat when frying.


Now let’s start cooking the noodles - it’s a responsible task and will take us at least 3 minutes :)

Funchoza is noodles made from bean starch; it should not be confused with rice noodles, because rice noodles, although they are also very tasty, come in other varieties.

In this salad, glass noodles are good for their transparency, elasticity - and lightning speed of preparation.

Boil water in a saucepan, add a little salt, turn off the heat, put the funchose in the water and close the lid.

We wait for three whole minutes, then drain the water, drain the noodles in a colander, stir, and put back into the pan.

Add a little olive oil and stir to prevent the noodles from sticking.

I do one tricky thing - to make eating the salad more convenient, I cut the noodles with scissors.

I lift it with a fork and cut it with scissors into pieces of the required length.


Let's return to the meat.

Peel and finely chop the garlic, add to the pan, keep warm over low heat.


We cut vegetables - cucumber into thin slices, pepper too.

If desired, Korean carrots can be cut for convenience, or you can leave them as is.


Add vegetables to the pan with meat, mix well.


Properly, without being greedy, we flavor it with sesame seeds.


Add the noodles properly, again without being greedy, season with olive oil and soy sauce.

Mix carefully.

This will not be easy to do - noodles are an insidious thing.


Another advantage of this salad is that it is very tasty warm, but also simply great cold!

Funchoza with meat- a hot dish of oriental cuisine. It has an original taste and if you haven’t tried anything like it yet, be sure to cook it. What kind of meat is best to use for funchose? I like beef; it goes well with all the ingredients in the dish. You can take any meat, for example pork is also good for this dish. The recipe is not complicated, you can easily prepare it at home if you take into account all the cooking secrets that I will tell you about now. We will prepare funchose with meat and vegetables.

Ingredients:

Rice vermicelli (actually funchose) - 1 pack;

Beef or pork meat - 0.5 - 0.8 kg;

Carrots - 1 piece;

Radish - 1 piece;

Red bell pepper - 2 pcs;

Hot pepper;

Garlic or herbs;

Vinegar - to taste, about 2 tablespoons;

Soy sauce.

Preparation:

You need to start preparing funchose by preparing the meat. We clean it of films and fat and cut it into small cubes.

Cut the meat for funchose into slices or cubes

Throw the meat into the hot oil and stir it quickly, trying to make it white on all sides. This way the meat will be juicy. Then you can add spices, cover with a lid and simmer over low heat until cooked. If the juice has evaporated and the meat is still tough, add hot water or broth and simmer some more. Add salt 10 minutes before the meat is ready.

While the meat is cooking, chop the vegetables. Carrots and radishes in strips, sweet peppers in small cubes.

Vegetables for funchose cut into strips

Fry the vegetables in a frying pan with vegetable oil, adding them one by one: carrots, radishes, peppers. Lightly salt and fry the vegetables until soft.

Preparation of funchose

Pour water into the pan as for boiling regular noodles. Salt and pour a little vegetable oil. When the water boils, add funchose, turn off the heat and let it sit for 3 minutes. As soon as the vermicelli becomes transparent, drain the water with the rice vermicelli into a colander and rinse with cold water so that it does not stick together. Some varieties of funchose are white, so do not wait for it to become transparent so as not to overcook the vermicelli. Be sure to look at the manufacturer's cooking instructions on the packaging.


We cut the funchose with a sharp knife into 4 parts, like a cake, and put it in the meat, which should already be ready. Mix well, add prepared vegetables, chopped herbs - wild garlic, or the feathers of regular garlic. I took a bunch of wild garlic, it also has good taste. Add soy sauce to taste.

Now you need to warm everything up well for about three minutes, stirring. If it doesn’t mix well, you can cut the vermicelli further. It happens that it is very long, and in this case it is difficult to mix it.

That's all. We just prepared funchose with meat and vegetables at home. Place it in a heap on a serving plate and serve.

Bon appetit!

Cooking steps

In order for you to get a delicious Korean salad with funchose, the noodles must be cooked correctly. If it has a thickness of about 1 mm in diameter, it must be poured with boiling water and left for five minutes, then drained. If the diameter is larger, cook the noodles in lightly salted water for 4-5 minutes, but not longer than the specified time. To prevent it from sticking together during cooking, add a little vegetable oil to the water. Remember that undercooked funchose noodles will stick to your teeth, and overcooked ones will become soggy. Properly cooked rice noodles should be soft but still slightly crispy. As cooking gurus say, it should be “al dente.” Determine what kind of noodles you purchased and prepare them correctly.

In our recipe we use the thinnest funchose, so fill it with boiling water and wait 5 minutes.

After five minutes, drain the water, rinse the noodles thoroughly and drain in a colander. All moisture should drain completely.

Cut the peeled onions into rings or half rings and place them in a well-heated frying pan, after adding a little vegetable oil. Rinse the meat thoroughly and dry it, cut it into squares or cubes. Place the meat in a frying pan with onions. Peel the carrots and grate them on a grater designed for chopping carrots in Korean. Add carrots to the meat and onions and mix everything thoroughly. Fry the ingredients until the meat is cooked.

Remove the stem and seeds from the red bell pepper. Cut the pepper into half rings and add to the pan with the rest of the ingredients. Fry the peppers for a few minutes, then turn off the heat and cool the vegetables and meat.

While the hot ingredients of the salad with funchose are cooling, let’s get started with the fresh ingredients. Wash the cucumber thoroughly and cut into thin strips. It will be better if you chop it on a Korean carrot shredder. Peel the garlic and chop it with a knife or pass it through a press. Finely chop the dill. Take a spacious container and place funchose noodles, fried vegetables, meat and fresh salad ingredients into it, add a little sugar, salt and ground black pepper to taste. Mix everything well.

Funchoza or “glass” noodles- a traditional product of Asian cuisine. It is actively used in various dishes of China, Japan, Korea, and Thailand. One of the popular ones is soup with funchose, for which there are a great many recipes. Let's consider two of them - lean and meat.

Ingredients for Lenten Soup:

100 g funchose;

1 large onion;

1 medium carrot;

1 medium tomato;

5 cloves of garlic;

200-220 g of mushrooms – champignons or oyster mushrooms;

45-50 ml soy sauce;

30-40 ml vegetable oil;

salt, herbs - to taste.

There is a recipe for soup with funchose in meat broth. Chicken or turkey fillet is ideal for this. The following ingredients will be required:

0.5 kg fillet;

200 g funchose;

1 carrot;

1 medium onion;

½ sweet pepper;

½ celery root;

30 ml vegetable oil;

salt, peppercorns, parsley - to taste.

Funchoza - glass noodles

Funchoza is practically devoid of any taste, but absorbs them well. Therefore, the dish acquires the taste and aroma of other components: mushrooms, vegetables, meat, seafood. The noodles are called glass noodles due to the transparency they acquire during the cooking process. The noodles are practically invisible in the broth, but the soup with funchose and chicken will be thicker and richer than usual.

Traditionally, funchose is made from mung bean starch. Some manufacturers replace it with cassava starch, potato starch or cheaper corn starch. Corn noodles are considered not of the highest quality, including in terms of taste. Therefore, in order to have a dish of “correct” noodles on the table, you need to look at its composition before purchasing.

Starch noodles can hardly be called low-calorie, because 100 g of the product contains about 300-320 kcal. Depending on the other ingredients added to the soup, the calorie content of the entire dish may change. For example, mushroom soup with funchose will have minimal calorie content. If the soup broth is made from fatty meats, the nutritional value will increase significantly.

Chinese noodle soups are quite healthy. It contains vitamins B, E, PP, as well as minerals such as potassium, selenium, iron, phosphorus. Noodles are easily absorbed by the body, although dishes with them are quite filling. Thanks to this, Chinese soup with funchose improves digestion and helps eliminate toxins, especially when it comes to vegetable broth. Due to the high starch content in its composition, funchose reduces blood sugar levels.


Making mushroom soup

Mushroom soup with added funchose

Carrots must be grated on a coarse grater or cut into thin strips, onions cut into half rings, mushrooms - arbitrarily.

Pour boiling water over the tomato, remove the skin and cut into cubes.

Garlic cloves are cut into 2 parts.

Pour vegetable oil into the frying pan and fry the garlic in it for about 3 minutes, after which remove the cloves from the frying pan. This is necessary to give the dish a special aroma.

Fry the onion for about 2 minutes, then add mushrooms and carrots to it. Vegetables must be fried over low heat.

After 10-15 minutes, add tomatoes, pour in soy sauce and simmer for about another 5-7 minutes.

Bring 600-700 ml of water to a boil and add the vegetable mixture to it.

If desired, the soup with funchose and mushrooms can be salted. But you should do this carefully, because soy sauce is already salty.

Lastly, add funchose, wait 1-2 minutes and turn off the heat. For those who choose thicker noodles, soak them in cold water for 10 minutes before adding to the soup. Before serving, you can wait about 10 minutes for the soup to steep.


Making chicken soup

Chicken soup with Chinese noodles

The fillet is cut into cubes or strips, poured with 2-2.3 liters of water and boiled for about 15 minutes.

Vegetables must be cut: carrots into strips, onions and peppers into cubes, celery into rings.

Vegetables are fried in oil for 10 minutes, after which they are added to the prepared broth.

If desired, you can add salt, herbs and spices.

Before cooking, add noodles to the broth. Chicken soup with funchose is simmered for 2 minutes and turned off.

The soup is poured into deep bowls and served hot. It can be decorated with herbs, lemon slices or halves of quail eggs. Funchoza is quite filling, so this soup is eaten without bread.

The dish is best consumed immediately after preparation. Further heating may cause the funchose to boil over and only spoil the taste. The device should be chosen depending on the amount of noodles. So, it is better to eat thick soup with chopsticks; for liquid soup, a spoon will do.

Funchoza is a starchy noodle of Asian origin. I bought it, tried it, and immediately realized that funchose is a colossal space for a gourmet’s imagination. Salads, soups and side dishes are prepared on its basis. She doesn't have a strong taste of her own, so she goes with almost everything.

Served hot or cold. Can also be served with mushrooms or meat (which is typical for the Korean snack Japchae)

Glass noodles are usually made from mung bean starch. Less commonly used starch is potato, cassava, canna, and yam. In modern production, bean starch can be replaced with cheaper corn starch.

As a rule, glass noodles have a circular cross-section; diameter varies. Sold dried. Used in soups, salads, deep-fried dishes. “Glass noodles” got their name because of the translucent appearance they acquire after cooking.

In Russia, glass noodles are often mistakenly called rice noodles. Unlike rice noodles made from rice flour, which turn white when cooked, almost indistinguishable from spaghetti, starch noodles become translucent but are less resistant to heat treatment. It is in this mixture that the Funcheza salad is made, without turning it into porridge, but leaving the noodle fibers with elasticity and the usual taste.

How to cook funchose

If the funchose is undercooked, it will stick to the teeth, and if it is overcooked, it will simply become limp. Therefore, boiling funchose should be approached with all seriousness, otherwise it will not be possible to prepare culinary masterpieces from it.

Depending on the thickness of the noodle “threads,” boil it for three to four minutes or simply pour boiling water over it. To prepare thin types of funchose (up to 0.5 mm in diameter, similar to Italian “angel hair” pasta), put the noodles in a deep container, pour boiling water over them, close the lid tightly and let stand for about five minutes.

Thicker funchoza is prepared similarly to other types of pasta - in salted boiling water, only the cooking time is limited to three to four minutes.

To prevent the noodles from sticking together, it is advisable to cook them in a large amount of salted water, into which you should pour a little vegetable oil. If the funchose is boiled correctly, it will turn out soft, but a little crunchy.

Most often on store shelves you can find funchose in the form of skeins of different sizes.

It should be cooked in a special way. Before cooking, we thread a long thin thread through a hank of noodles and tie it into a ring.

Take a deep pan, fill it with water at the rate of 1 liter per 100 grams of noodles, and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil and a teaspoon of salt for each liter.

Place a tied skein of noodles into the boiling water in the center of the pan. Cook the funchose for 3-4 minutes, discard in a colander and immediately run under running cold water. Then we take the skein by the thread ring, shake it well and send it to the cutting board. Remove the thread and cut the funchose across the fibers with a sharp knife.
