In reply to Aga. You can make rice noodles that do not contain gluten. I don't have a recipe yet but you can find them by googling it.

Great recipe! Is there any chance to make noodles that are gluten free? What flour to use, i am at loss and can’t have gluten 🙁

Thanks so much for this recipe! I have tried a lot of hand pulled noodle recipes to various degrees of success but this one was by far the easiest and simplest with the best results! I do think that pulling noodles does take a bit of practice, and while i can’t quite do what you recommend with stretching them quickly, i can get them quite thin by gradually stretching and bouncing. But I ended up with a great medium thickness noodle that pairs well with soups! I would recommend to other people that can’t pull as thin as you’d like, to salt the boiling water that you boil the noodles in so that the noodles have more flavor since broth can’t necessarily penetrate it deeply.

In reply to Scott Wick. I've never tried freezing these but I think it's possible. Once fully thawed, the dough should still be very tender and easy to stretch out.

i made the extra wide ones. Good to make while you have other things going on because of the wait times. They were amazing! wondering if they could be frozen before the slap and cook.

This was so awesome! My whole family loved the noodles…even my picky kids 😆 They were so eager to eat that I didn’t stop to take pics, but they’ve already requested an encore so I’ll make sure to take pics next time!

Thank you for such clear instructions. I’ve made these a few times now, and while they look a bit wonky and not as pretty as yours, they are fantastic! I paired these with the homemade chili oil, ma po tofu, dry fried long bean, orange chicken, and beef w/broccoli. All your recipes, all great. What a feast!!

Wow! This is a fun recipe that concludes with fresh restaurant-quality noodles! Thank you for creating this recipe. it is flawless!

I tried making hand-pulled noodles yesterday using another recipe that used the same ingredients but a different technique and it was nothing in comparison to this. Kudos!

In reply to Paul. Hi Paul, you don't need the third resting since the noodles are ready to cook as soon as they're pulled and stretched out. You should cover them with plastic to prevent drying out when you're pulling the rest noodles. But ideally you can even cook them one at a time when you pull them (restaurant chefs use this practice, but you need to work fast enough).
