About the product

Better Than Foods Rice-shaped Konjac Noodles are Asian noodles made from the root of the konjac plant (Amorphophallus konjac) in the shape of rice grains – a traditional ingredient in Chinese and Japanese cuisine that has been known there for centuries. Made from konjac flour and oat fibre.

Distinctive feature: 9 kcal/100 g (practically zero calories) and 4 g fibre/100 g – it is a source of fibre (threshold ≥3 g/100 g according to Regulation 1924/2006). No added fat, sugar or salt. The noodles have a neutral taste – they absorb the flavour of added spices, sauces and ingredients, so they taste just like the dish you add them to.
