Cooking tips 💡

• Microwaving dried round herring for 30 seconds before cooking removes fishy odor along with moisture.
• Dried kelp should be removed after 5 minutes of boiling, as prolonged cooking causes a sticky residue.
• Adding cold water each time the noodles bubble helps cook the inside evenly, resulting in a chewy, springy texture.
• Rinse boiled noodles thoroughly under cold water, swishing them vigorously like laundry, to remove all starch and prevent clumping over time.
