  | We are very lucky in Hong Kong as there are some great local options for gluten free noodles. This photo includes some of our favorites, all available from the local supermarkets in Hong Kong, such as Wellcome and Park N Shop. The top row are rice noodles - great for a variety of Asian style dishes, stir fries and soups. The three on the bottom row are all produced by the same company that only makes rice and buckwheat noodles - no wheat at all. The Brown Rice Vermicelli is a good 'spaghetti' substitute as well as eaten cold with some sesame oil and toppings. The Buckwheat Elbow Macaroni are a dish my kids insist on every week. The 100% Buckwheat Soba noodles are also a family favorite and one of the only 100% buckwheat noodles I have found in HK, most of the soba here have wheat in them. These Mung Bean / Green Bean Vermicelli, in the bottom photo, are readily available and super cheap. Do check the ingredients as some add potato or other flour, while some are just green bean. They are fast to cook and are usually served cold so can be made in advance. My kids love them cold with sesame oil, while adults like to add chili sauce. They are also great in fresh Vietnamese spring rolls! If you want other varieties, click here to find Gluten Free Pasta on iHerb. The Tinkyada Gluten Free Pasta is quite nice and has some fun shapes and colors for kids. |
