I made "ants climbing a tree" with two handfuls of glass noodles tonight, and it tasted great. These glass noodles don't get mushy even after being cooked for a long time, which is nice. I just wonder if they're made purely from mung beans?

These glass noodles have a good texture and are suitable for hot pot or steamed glass noodles with scallops and shrimp.
