                                Over 95% of shirataki noodles are composed of water, yet they are packaged in an alkaline liquid that gives off a distinct and unpleasant fishy smell. Therefore, you have to rinse shirataki noodles before cooking to eliminate this odor and improve their overall texture, transforming them from slimy to satisfying.
