Frequently asked Questions 🎓
Rice vermicelli only need to be soaked in hot water, instead of boiled, before they're ready to use in stir-fries or other dishes. Bring a medium pot of water to a boil, remove the pot from the heat, and add the noodles. Let the noodles soak until they're tender, about 5 minutes. Drain and pat dry..
The cold water will remove surface starch and cool the noodles, keeping them from cooking any longer. Once the noodles are rinsed, toss them in a bowl with a small amount of oil, which will provide further insurance against sticking. Toss them every five or ten minutes until you're ready to use them.
Just put the leftover rice noodles in a zip lock bag in the refrigerator to store them. When you are ready to use them the next day or so put however many you want into a heat proof bowl and pour boiling water over them.
