Hey all,
I've come up short trying to find info on some Chinese rice noodles (flakes) that I have now become addicted to. There is precious little info on the bag but the only English mentions "Guobian flakes." They are a fairly wide, flat, dried rice noodle.
The only other info is on the mfr. which is Fuzhou Luhong Food Co. which also turns up nothing. In my own research I found that guo = pot and bian = side but little else. I only have one source for them and if it ever fails me I have no way to find more. I posted a Thai Pad See Ew recipe on my blog recently featuring them and it seems like folks cannot find these same noodles in their local markets. I've suggested bahn pho as a kind of alternative, and of course fresh is always a labor/time intensive option but these guobian flakes are just a perfect fit.
Any info or help is greatly appreciated,
- Dominic
