Edamame Spaghetti

These noodles have been amazing for my meal prep. I’ve been using them not as a protein replacement but as a way to bulk up meals without having to have tons of carbs and tons of protein shakes. My meal preps which include these noodles and a serving of protein are easily in the 40-70g of protein range. Easily helping me reach my goal of 100-160g a day. They don’t get soggy and soft even when sitting in the fridge after being cooked for 7 days. In fact they don’t seem to degrade in texture at all. They don’t taste like cardboard and between myself, my sister, and her boyfriend, we all love these noodles. While they are pricey if you look at it as a carb, I think of it as a carb that’s super high in protein and fiber while being low in carbs. Helping you maintain a low carb high protein diet. And because it’s protein, you feel full faster and stay full longer. All in all, it’s a staple of mine now.

I love carbs but I am prediabetic so I need to watch what I eat. This edamame spaghetti gets it right. I cook these in boiling water for 4 minutes and it comes out with firm texture and consistency that is the closest to wheat pasta that I have ever tried. They used to sell this at Costco but Amazon is the only place where I can consistently find this now and I can't live without it. You can use this also as a soba noodle substitute and it goes well with soba dipping sauce. I know this is more expensive compared to wheat pasta but it is worth it. The package can last for several servings but it tastes so good that you want more. It does have a slight green color because it is made from soybeans but it goes well with just about anything you usually cook with wheat pasta. It does not get soggy quickly when in pasta sauce. If you need a pasta alternative that is diabetic friendly, this will be your go to product.

I'm always looking for a low carb alternative. Health claims aside this looks good, no smell like konjac but it has the texture of chewed chewing gum. The taste is neutral. Neither good nor bad.

I luv this stuff. It's my all-time favorite pasta. I luv Edamame Beans, & since the only ingredient in this pasta is Organic Edamame flour, the Edamame flavor is prominent. Also the protein content is higher & the carb content is lower than in wheat pasta, which makes this one healthier. This Edamame spaghetti cooks quickly, & it's very chewey, never mushy [not even when overcooked]. So if you like al-Dente pasta with the taste of Edamame Beans, this is for you. It's more expensive than super-market pasta, but I think it's worth every penny. I'm surprised at all the negative reviews of this pasta, but i understand that everyone likes different things. For the people who don't like this Edamame spaghetti, I'd suggest that you try MIXING IT with the plain white or whole wheat spaghetti that you like. That way maybe it will taste more familiar & the unusual taste & texture of Edamame spaghetti will be less noticable to you. Good Luck & Good Eats! I hope you can find a way to enjoy this Explore Edamame pasta as much as I do.

I've been cooking wheat pasta for over 60 years (and eating it longer than that), so I'm a long-time wheat pasta lover!! But due to heath issues, I'm trying to cut back on carbs for me and hubby. We're not pure keto, just looking to cut out large amounts of carbs. So my method is to use half regular pasta, half lower carb supplement. I was skeptical about this product, but decided to give it a try, and it worked for us, no weird taste or texture. However, it should be noted that I had to adjust cooking. In a response to one of the questions above about cooking, I said that, ultimately, I cooked it about 15 minutes (bring to boil, then simmer) before it got the right texture (we like our pasta softer). Fortunately, it did NOT get rubbery or fall apart, as some others have reported. Cook on simmer, not hard boil, and it may heelp hold together better. I added some butter and garlic and it actually tasted pretty good, both with sauce and with just plain cheese. I've always said that a good sauce will cover a lot of sins! Does it taste like regular pasta? No, it does not, but nothing will substitute perfectly. So you need to go into it with an open mind for differences.

Excellent high protein pasta. It is delicious but it takes an acquired taste to be able to enjoy its health benefits. A truly vegan food. I highly recommend it only if you are willing to take time and patience to adjust to its unusual taste. It does not taste like regular white and whole wheat pasta

I absolutely love this pasta. I have missed finding it in my local stores and was happy to find it on Amazon. I hesitated due to the price, but I will use it sparingly.

Since receiving a pre-diabetes diagnosis, I have craved pasta. i had high hopes for this "spaghetti" to replace the high-carb option. Sadly, this product did not work for me. I made a delicious pesto from homegrown basil, and smothered a bowl of this spaghetti, only to be really disappointed. I am big on texture, and this stuff just put me off. It is really skinny, yet, it has a weird chunkiness to it. The flavor is not overwhelming, I could put up with that. But, the texture made me feel like gagging. I wish I hadn't bought the 2 lb box.
