NOTE :
- If it is difficult to get those noodles, then use "Barilla Capellini No. 1". When you cook pasta in boiling water, just add 1 tbsp of baking soda (1 tbsp baking soda per 1 liter of water). The pasta will turn more Ramen-like, and that's all you need to do. It is quite helpful when you are busy :-)
