Here you can use either thin spaghetti or Angel hair pasta into Chinese noodles. Great for Lo Mein or noodle soup. My Japanese friend who lives in Germany taught me this technique.

Number Of Ingredients 4

16 ounces thin spaghetti or 16 ounces angel hair pasta

Steps:

  • Bring lots of water to boil as you would usually cook pasta.
  • Add salt (I use about 1TBSP) and baking soda.
