My husband and I have been on Keto for 18 months, lost weight, lost fatty livers, and serious joint pain. I’m 72 and he’s 76. We feel great and can now work out as well. We do time restricted eating so we normally only eat one meal around 5 pm and I prepare all our meals with fresh ingredients. One of the things we missed was Italian meals with pasta. Once I discovered Cappella’s pasta in the freezer section, we haven’t looked back. We’ve made wonderful lasagna, chicken/shrimp fettuccine Alfredo and penne pasta with red sauce and meatballs. The noodles take 1min 45 seconds to cook, so they are the last thing I cook. While there are some carbs, it does not cause us to go over our amount in a day. I have fixed these meals for young families in our church who just had babies but are gluten intolerant. Took the meals and package so they know what is out there. Also, you don’t even cook the lasagna noodles before backing. As long as you don’t over cook the noodles you will think you are eating the real thing!
Love you ladies! The purpose of vodka in the sauce is for the same.reason you would add wine to a sauce, just without the stronger flavour that could distract the shining and intended flavour. Meaning it to be dominant. The alcohol allows the sauce to bind smoother, giving a creamer texture. I actually just learned that a few weeks ago! Haha
I think it might also grab a lot of flavors out of the shallot/tomato paste and then disperse better in the cream. It's like the alcohol extracts extra flavor.
yup... any time You use an acid to deglaze the pan, which You always want to do 😍, it adds a depth & richness to the recipe that makes the difference between food & Excellent food!!
If you actually want to mimic the pasta water - you need to add a keto friendly starch to the salted water. The point of adding the pasta water to the sauce is to help thicken the sauce slightly and to help the sauce adhere to the noodles better.
I learned from watching Alton Brown in Good Eats awhile ago that tomatoes have fairly complex flavors, that are carried in water, oil, and alcohol, so their full, complex nature comes out when there's a little of each involved in cooking them. Since learning that, I started making sure to add just a touch of red wine (Montepulciano d'Abruzzo, 1 net carb per 5 oz. serving), and it really does make a difference. And, with the carbs in that wine so low, I can sip while I cook!
I hadn't heard of these noodles, so thanks for testing them out for your tribe! An idea...instead of adding water with salt (which is just for the starch anyway), you could use salted butter. 🙂 Love you girls...thank you for always keeping it light and making me laugh! 💞
I guess I'm the only one who likes konjac noodles. I open pkg thoroughly rinse & put in a hot pan to dissipate the liquid. I use it for red pasta sauce. Last night I added to a Korean beef dish & it was excellent. Once I add to a sauce there is no weird flavor & takes on the flavor of the sauce.
@MiaBclothingandketo i like konjac noodles or sometimes tofu shirataki noodles too. I like the fact that when pasta/ramen craving hits, i can just grab it from the local store.
Huge vodka sauce fan here...Although its subtle the vodka does add flavor and just as an FYI the primary purpose for adding pasta water is for the starch that seeped out of the pasta and thickening, so really on keto the water isn't necessary (then just salt to taste)
I also miss Potatoes as well as bread, pasta, rice. I just wished Keto wasn't so expensive to buy :( Thanks Ladies. Always Great watching your channel!
Potatoes are no longer the enemy! Cook and cool potatoes to convert them to a resistant starch. They may not be strictly keto, but they will be low carb! I just skip the processed, packaged 'Keto' stuff and stick with meat, fish, seafood, eggs, some dairy, and tons of veggies. I often stir fry sliced cabbage and onions as a sub for noodles. Also good in soups, stews...
I totally HATE the Healthy Noodles; guess that’s why there are more options. I like the noodles made from Ann at Keto Asian Flavors, but it’s a bit of work, and I don’t use that many noodles on a weekly basis. These sound like the same noodles in a small premade package. This could be a winner! 😉
@@floatingmoon5778 I figured they were close to heavenly fan noodles. I wonder if hers could be stored someway? I think I remember they can be stored in the liquid for quite some time? Wonder if they freeze and thaw well. But also it wasn't easy getting consistent thin noodles lol. But would definitely be cheaper. Especially since I have all the ingredients already.
Late to the party - but . . . The reason they add pasta water is not for the salt, it is for the starch in the water from the pasta. This helps to thicken the sauce and helps it to adhere to the pasta better. Next time mix a little arrowroot powder with the water to get a similar effect. Sorry if this is a repeat of another comment.
So, love y’all, btw. Been following for years. Anyways, the addition of pasta water is usually for the residual starch left over in the pasta water…it helps make a sauce while thickening at the same time. Since these noodles don’t have any starch, I’d have thought to maybe use a little less water but your recipe seems to have worked out just fine. Thanks for another great recipe
I made the Keto Asian Flavors recipe from scratch, and it was arduous and gummed up my squeeze bottle til I almost wanted to toss it. Cleanup was a whole operation. The pasta, however, was great, and based on that alone, I just bought these off Amazon. If this brings vermicelli back into my life, keto is forever.
Me, too. I made the Keto Asian Flavors noodles twice - I call them 'weird alchemy noodles' - and they're just not worth the hassle in my opinion. I keep searching for the best home made noodle recipe and have yet to find one that really hits all the right marks. They're either too crumbly or too spongy. 😒 If these are good, then I'll break the bank every once in a while to enjoy pasta again.
@CookingwithMel has a recipe called Zero Carb Noodles in 5 Minutes using sodium alginate and calcium lactate. Her recipe is for a smaller portion and she used a blender cup to mix all of the ingredients at the same time. Mel set a timer in her video to show it only takes 5 minutes. She also explained variations of different flours and liquids you can use such as broth, milk, almond flour, chicken flour, etc. Also, how to store them in the freezer. I've made them twice and each time was quick, simple, and tasty.
I had heard of these and already had ordered and tried them through Amazon. They are my go to noodle if I decide I want pasta. This allows me not to conduct the science experiment noodle making - which I think I have done three times now and it makes entirely too much for me to ever eat...so I end up throwing it away. Glad that this is now in small packs and we can purchase it. 🙂 I am going to have to give the Vodka sauce a try!
Thank you! I ordered these immediately after watching. They arrived quickly, and I have to say they are onecof the best pasta substitute I've tried. They are a little soft (not aal dente), and you have to really drain all the liquid it comes in, but it just soaks up the flavor of the sauce and gives you those great pasta vibes!
I also picked up some canned "absolutely gluten free",grain free,..its made from hearts of palm ,spaghetti noodle..these are very good go keto 2 carbs per server
Do you know what is interesting? I was kind of missing pasta, but just knowing now that there is a pretty good replacement makes me not wanna have it. It’s like oh I can kind of it so I’m not worried about it
I love you Ladies!! So real and down to earth. Just had to say that. I am not 100 percent keto but getting there. I enjoy your work. Sending Love to you both ❤️
I'm going to order some now. I absolutely loved the immi ramen after watching your video - although I don't use the flavor packets. I add my own stuff. I ended up subscribing to it on Amazon and have it once a week. Nice to have some different dinner choices, thanks to both of you❤❤
Vodka sauce does have Vodka in it,and taste pretty good. I picked up miracle noodles spaghetti stlye,the noodles are in a ready to use packet pouch to,
Sooo glad you found this! I cant do grain - even worse than needing to avoid gluten. And noodles have been my waterloo. I breakdown (probably girl hormone driven) about once a month and end up itchy for 3ish days as a consequence. Cant wait to try these. Thanks for showing the way! 😂
Aldi just came out with Hearts of Palm pasta in their "Simply Nature" brand..was excited to find them as they are much cheaper also🎉...i live in Illinois
I have just started using these noodles (Noodle revolution) when I don't feel like making the ones from "Keto Asian flavors" which I love but they are time consuming to make. The Noodle revolution ones taste exactly the same to me. They are very easy and that's nice when you don't have a lot of time.
Noodle revolution has replaced my chosen noodle. Made spaghetti and meat sauce with vermicelli noodles. 1 lb ground meat with 1 jar sauce needed 3 pouches making 4-5 meals. Supply is low in Amazon. Was able to order ramen sized noodle from supplier directly. Will now try immi ramen as pasta noodle and new version of spaghetti noodle.
Ok..just found you..and have been binge watching your videos! I tried going carnivore last week..and found I couldn't go full blast with it. I love that you give different options and your approach..thank you for your videos and your outlook. It gives me hope that I can follow this and not feeling like a failure if I eat higher carbs
I have to try Noodle Revolution. Right now I use Miracle Noodle which I really like, but when you have a BM, don't be afraid, it's just the noodles don't digest, they come right out.
I tried these noodles, they are the best pasta replacement I have eaten so far! I did buy the miracle noodle also so I’m looking forward to trying those as well. Thank you again for the review! I was starting to get bored and I come to your channel only to find more inspiration and ideas!! I love it!
Usually you add alcohol to tomatoes to bring out some flavors in the tomatoes that are alcohol soluble. Bluntly? It makes the tomatoes more tomatoey. Also, you add pasta water to add some starch (from the pasta) into the sauce to help with thickening.
Oh. I am glad you like them. I bought a 6 pack and the cost of the noodles and shipping them to Canada cost a fortune…but I really wanted to try them! I might just try these today! 🌹
I have tried over a dozen different kinds of noodles so far. The one that I found to be most like regular noodles is Carba Nada Roasted Garlic noodles. They have 12.5 grams of carbs per 28 grams of noodles so portion control is important, but it's worth it to actually be able to enjoy that pasta taste and texture!
The pasta water is added to incorporate the starch that comes off of the pasta which helps the sauce stick to the pasta when everything is combined. I loved this video and will definitely try the pasta. 💕
Any alcohol added to a sauce (especially tomato based one) amps up the flavor of the tomato . I learned this on America’s Test Kitchen. It explains why many French, Italians etc add beer, wine etc to many very flavorful dishes
congratulations ladies, the noodles are currently unavailable since your video aired. Love you gals, I remember when you wanted 10,000 subscribers and look at you now!
Metabolic Flexibility is important especially in more restrictive lifestyles like Keto or Paleo. It helps to keep your metabolism from becoming rigid and punishing if you happen to stray temporarily.
About three years ago found the company called Great Low Carb Bread Co. 2 ounce portion is 7 carbs can be a lot for some, I would add more than 1/4 pound of beef low carb vegetables it was a good amount and I thought it taste wise so far the best low carb pasta around. Three years ago for my budget it was expensive at around $9-$10 for 8 ounce package NOW its going over at $14.99 maybe can be found cheaper than at Amazon but it you get the 4 pack it's $40. I love the the stuff and helps when I really want pasta but its it very expensive ingredients: Pea Protein isolate, Oat Fiber, Wheat Fiber, Egg Whites, Wheat Gluten and Semolina.
I've had these numerous times; they have to drain really well for the sauce to stay on. If you order the 6 pack it comes to only $3.99 per service (yes still kinda high but if you REALLY want spaghetti..................)
Thanks for all the tips. Today I made your recipe for Chaffles adding homemade pumpkin spice with bits of pecans (drop or two of vanilla and a teaspoon of water) topped with swerve brown sugar. Yum.
@@Dtabshere not sure which noodles you mean. These are usually found refrigerated with other seaweeds. They might even be in a different section from shirataki noodles. The noodles are clear and crunchy, but become soft like vermicelli if massaged with baking soda and lemon juice. The kelp noodles are called cheon sa chae (천사 채)
@@Dtabshere if you soften them, they are exactly like glass noodles and absorb flavor well, but if you don't then they are quite crunchy (people make cold noodle salads with the crunchy texture). They aren't rubbery like how shirataki noodles are
Thanks girls 😘!!! I definitely am gonna put these on my to try list❤!!!! Thanks for always keeping it funny and chill, loving that bug veil hahahaha 😂😂😂 classy look there 😊
I just ordered some. I like Lupin noodles. Have you tried them? There is also Lupin rice which is good. But like you it has been forever since I have had real pasta.
Alcohol is a solvent that releases volatiles that are not fat or water soluble, so it actually releases new flavors into the sauce you cannot get other ways.
joye3357 is correct about the binding function of alcohol but there's one other important function as well. It "deglazes" the pan. It dissolves the highly condensed stuff stuck to the bottom of the pan and returns all that flavor to the sauce.. It's one of the standard professional tricks that makes a chef different from a cook.
I ordered some of these a few days ago and I will not be receiving them until the middle of November! This happens all the time with Keto stuff that tastes good and is low in carbs. Thanks for reviewing them. I am not really big on red sauces but I loved noodles(pre Keto) with cheese or butter on them. So that is what I will be doing when I finally receive them! :)
I've made these at home, and they are super low carb and good, but girl, I am a huge fan of someone mass marketing something that I normally have to make by hand. I've already bought a mega pack. I really try to stay away from any grains because they flare my A.I. pain. I am filled with the same happiness today as when I learned that Cloudies were on the market and I could buy as clean a product as I would have made at home. So much easier and portioned out. YAY.
Indigo Nilli makes eggwhite and gelatin crêpes that she uses like lasagna noodles or slices into noodles. I found them to be the best spaghetti replacement! I love zucchini noodles In lasagna tho, I prefer it ! but you MUST season and bake or fry the zucchini slices for else they don’t have the same texture
QUESTION FOR THE TWINS: I have not seen anything growing in your hydroponic tower for quite sometime and today the basil (cute hat BTW) was cut from garden outside. Did the hydroponic system now work well?
It works really well, but it does take a lot of tending to. (Cleaning, pruning, changing our seedlings etc) We’ve had a lot going on this year and kept pushing off refilling it, maybe we will start once the weather turns in Chicago lol
Watching these videos is like having two funny friends you love to hang out with.

Maybe a little xanthan gum sprinkled in carefully for the thickener.

Hi! They actually add pasta water to the sauce because of the starch from the pasta :) helps bind the sauce and also makes it thicker
Seems to me, when I have done it, that adding the water makes it waterier. Not thicker. Maybe it’s just me.
Vodka sauce has vodka in it because if it didn't they couldn't call it vodka sauce. I will show myself out now.
😂
😂

I have ordered these 3 or 4 times since I heard about them. They are WONDERFUL ! Thank you girls for spreading the good news. I love you two 💙

I like Miracle Noodles (konjac). With sauce or chopped into soup or casserole.
It's not the flavor of konjac noodles to me. It's the texture I can't get past. 🤢
@juliannekristy7977 that's the same with me it hits the spot. Never craved pasta the konjac does the trick❤
My daughter-in-law love them 😊

If you love potatoes try Cris Cooking Nashvilles “mashed potatoes “. They are delicious and carnivore. I’m making more tomorrow. I freeze portions.
My favorite noodles are Healthy Noodles in the refrigerated section at Costco. 6 bags in a box for about $16.
Haven't been able to find them lately here 😢
Also my favorite, I wonder how these compare.
My favorite as well but the cost is crazy. I know keto is not a cheap journey but I've found the konjac noodles from Vitacost fill my noodles craving.
I totally HATE the Healthy Noodles; guess that’s why there are more options. I like the noodles made from Ann at Keto Asian Flavors, but it’s a bit of work, and I don’t use that many noodles on a weekly basis. These sound like the same noodles in a small premade package. This could be a winner! 😉

Pinch off the basil flowers when they appear. Letting the plant flower turns the leaves bitter
Actually with this variety the bloom does not change the flavor! It’s called amazel basil by proven winners 🌱

The Noodle revolution ones taste exactly the same to me. They are very easy and that's nice when you don't have a lot of time.
Noodle revolution has replaced my chosen noodle. Made spaghetti and meat sauce with vermicelli noodles. 1 lb ground meat with 1 jar sauce needed 3 pouches making 4-5 meals. Supply is low in Amazon.

Metabolic Flexibility is important especially in more restrictive lifestyles like Keto or Paleo. It helps to keep your metabolism from becoming rigid and punishing if you happen to stray temporarily.
About three years ago found the company called Great Low Carb Bread Co. 2 ounce portion is 7 carbs can be a lot for some, I would add more than 1/4 pound of beef low carb vegetables it was a good amount and I thought it taste wise so far the best low carb pasta around. Three years ago for my budget it was expensive at around $9-$10 for 8 ounce package NOW its going over at $14.99 maybe can be found cheaper than at Amazon but it you get the 4 pack it's $40. I love the the stuff and helps when I really want pasta but its it very expensive ingredients: Pea Protein isolate, Oat Fiber, Wheat Fiber, Egg Whites, Wheat Gluten and Semolina.
$8.99 per serving? Those servings looked pretty small as well. Like everything, I guess it depends on what you really want. Thanks ladies. ❤️🥰❤️
I've had these numerous times; they have to drain really well for the sauce to stay on. If you order the 6 pack it comes to only $3.99 per service (yes still kinda high but if you REALLY want spaghetti..................)
They are about 4$ a bag

Are those similar to the noodles found in the produce dept.
@@Dtabshere not sure which noodles you mean. These are usually found refrigerated with other seaweeds. They might even be in a different section from shirataki noodles. The noodles are clear and crunchy, but become soft like vermicelli if massaged with baking soda and lemon juice. The kelp noodles are called cheon sa chae (천사 채)
@vivu4327 yes the shiritaki noodles are the ones that I was taking about. Are the kelp ones similar
@@Dtabshere if you soften them, they are exactly like glass noodles and absorb flavor well, but if you don't then they are quite crunchy (people make cold noodle salads with the crunchy texture). They aren't rubbery like how shirataki noodles are
@@vivu4327 thanks...I will have to try them!
It looks good but they are out of stock. Five dollars per bag seems to be costly. Thanks for the review. love to watch your videos.
I like noodles in soup, which this product satisfied. Granted I am not going to use these all the time but it hit the spot. 🍲
The vodka adds a bite to the sauce( hard to discribe) but i love the kick alcohol gives to foods ( rum soaked fruitcake anyone?) i know......🍸🍹🥃
Thanks for reviewing these noodles. I've purchased them but not yet tried a sauce for them. You two are the best!
I like to warm up faux pasta in a pan with garlic and butter, I feel like it gets a little bit more of a bite that way.
I have a bug net! I used to walk my Labs thru the woods a few times a day 😂
Ciao spaghetti & noodles - 17 net carbs per serving - try if you are low carb/maintenance. Totally LEGIT pasta
Steve from Serious Keto is the first person I saw that made noodles from the algenate…
These might please me for some Alfredo sauce..
💋🧚🏻♀️❤️🇺🇸
I am home ill this week and so so bored. You wonderful twins made me die laughing, especially with that cute hat. Keep up the great work. Thank you!
Thanks girls 😘!!! I definitely am gonna put these on my to try list❤!!!! Thanks for always keeping it funny and chill, loving that bug veil hahahaha 😂😂😂 classy look there 😊
Thanks so much for doing this review! I just bought these and was wondering how they tasted. Now I’m looking forward to soup season!
I just ordered some. I like Lupin noodles. Have you tried them? There is also Lupin rice which is good. But like you it has been forever since I have had real pasta.
We haven’t tried those yet! I think we tried lupin orzo and that was tasty
The purpose for adding pasta water is actually to emulsify/thicken sauces.
😍 I love your humor! Crack me up! Thx for the food ideas!
I use them to make Pho
Alcohol is a solvent that releases volatiles that are not fat or water soluble, so it actually releases new flavors into the sauce you cannot get other ways.
I think you could easily turn that sauce into a "cream of" soup and then you wouldn't need the noodles at all. 😉😉
😀
The noodles look good! You two are so funny. I died when you spelled out gooten LMAO😂
joye3357 is correct about the binding function of alcohol but there's one other important function as well.
It "deglazes" the pan. It dissolves the highly condensed stuff stuck to the bottom of the pan and returns all that flavor to the sauce..
It's one of the standard professional tricks that makes a chef different from a cook.
Pitch those flower heads on your basil and get more leaves
I love you guys. I learn a lot, enjoy the show and you always crack me up. Sisters are the best and having a twin must be awesome. 😂❤
Having a twin is awesome, sometimes 🤣
@@ketotwins lol I get it. Haha
I always love a good noodle recipe or substitute
Have a packet of the noodles. Now I know what I’m going to make with them! Thanks, Twins!❤
I ordered some of these a few days ago and I will not be receiving them until the middle of November! This happens all the time with Keto stuff that tastes good and is low in carbs. Thanks for reviewing them. I am not really big on red sauces but I loved noodles(pre Keto) with cheese or butter on them. So that is what I will be doing when I finally receive them! :)
I love garlic paste its so easy and soooo good.
Pasta water has starch to thicken a sauce. Wouldn't bother to try and replace it as an FYI.
Cloud Bread at Aldi too that’s fabulous. That is frozen and in a box of 4 count.
I've made these at home, and they are super low carb and good, but girl, I am a huge fan of someone mass marketing something that I normally have to make by hand. I've already bought a mega pack. I really try to stay away from any grains because they flare my A.I. pain. I am filled with the same happiness today as when I learned that Cloudies were on the market and I could buy as clean a product as I would have made at home. So much easier and portioned out. YAY.
I love being part of the tribe!! Yay ❤❤
❤️❤️❤️🤗🤗
Ethan Chlebowski did a whole video on what vodka brings to pasta sauce.
Fyi pinch the flowers off your basil to promote more growth of the leaves!
I actually use the flowers in arrangements 🥹 so I keep them 🌱
Indigo Nilli makes eggwhite and gelatin crêpes that she uses like lasagna noodles or slices into noodles. I found them to be the best spaghetti replacement!
I love zucchini noodles In lasagna tho, I prefer it !
but you MUST season and bake or fry the zucchini slices for else they don’t have the same texture
If not cooked first, the final product will be watery
QUESTION FOR THE TWINS: I have not seen anything growing in your hydroponic tower for quite sometime and today the basil (cute hat BTW) was cut from garden outside. Did the hydroponic system now work well?
It works really well, but it does take a lot of tending to. (Cleaning, pruning, changing our seedlings etc) We’ve had a lot going on this year and kept pushing off refilling it, maybe we will start once the weather turns in Chicago lol
Definitely will try this, thank you Girls❣️
These noodles were sold out on Amazon right after this video.
Noodles are back on the menu! TY and LOL.
