Making A gluten-free "cup Of Noodles"?

Last year, when we were skiing, some people had the ingredients from a gluteny Cup of Noodles instant soup in plastic baggies.  At the warming hut, they used the hot water and cups and made a little cup of soup.  I would like to do something like this.

 

I know I could use Knorr instant bouillon packets and that may be all I can do.  I wanted to see if anyone had any ideas for little noodles that would cook in a minute with some hot water?  Or little dried peas or carrot pieces?    Any ideas?

I was thinking more along the lines of a completely dried soup.  Something that doesn't need refrigeration or could go bad.  Like a gluten instant noodle cups where you just add hot water to reconstitute.

 

this sort of thing

What about the Thai Kitchen ramen noodles? You could take those out of the package and put them in a cup and add boiling water.

And even if you don't have a food dehydrater you can dehydrate carrots in the oven. Open Original Shared Link

You can also purchase dehydrated veggies off of Amazon. I buy them to have them on hand for making soup.

I guess I will have to experiment.  See if hot, not boiling, water will make noodles soft.  I wonder if WF has dehydrated veggies?  Maybe I am making this more complicated than it needs to be.  I might just be happy to have the warm chicken broth from the KNoor packets.....

I  think  gluten free on a  shoestring  has  a recipe  .......Trader  Joe's  has  a  noodle bowls  that  should be  microwaved  but  we  have  done  them  with just  boiling  hot water  when  primitive camping....

Those thai kitchen noodle packets are pretty good.  Give you that ramen feeling.

Thanks.  I'll look for those Trader Joes ones.  I don't think I have seen the Thai Kitchen ones.  I'll look for those, too!

I have seen the thai kitchen ones at walmart.  Also, they make thin rice noodles that you cook by putting them into hot broth or water, they are so thin you can't boil them really to keep them intact.  I think thai kitchen makes them, as well as others.  Those may be good to have a larger quantity and control what broth you use- maybe put some dried noodles and broth in a mason jar and take it along where you are going.

I love the Mai Fun rice sticks. Sit them for 5 minutes in hot water and they're done. I love the texture, too.

You could put some HerbOx Chicken Bouillion in a zip lock bag with some broken rice noodles.  Put it in a cup with water and microwave, when wanted.

Yeah... but even a small microwave can get kind of heavy in my backpack while skiing.    :lol:

Oldest son does ride a snowboard - that thing is wide enough to strap a microwave to!  Now we just need to find a plug on the top of the mountain!

The Thai Kitchen soups in the little bags are easy to make without cooking.  Squeeze the bag to break the rice noodles into smaller pieces (just to make it easier) and pour the noodles into a cup.  Add hot water to cover, add seasonings, and just let it sit until the noodles are soft.  Some of the seasoning packages are a little hard to open, so you might need a scissors.

Thanks.  I would probably open them and separate into smaller portions - so they would fit in a paper coffee cup.  But this has gotten me to thinking about bringing a "tin" camping cup.  

 

I just know that I will be happier if I can have a little something hot when everyone else is eating.

Sorry to jump in, but I've been doing kind of the same thing at work. Get some thin, easy to soak rice noodles (this might take some time to figure out at home first. Sit them in some hot or boiling water and see how well/quickly they soften up), you can break them up into smaller bunches if you want, zippie bags, whatever, and soak in hot (as you can find) water in a mug or whatever.

For seasoning, maybe a powdered broth of some sort, mix in extra spices. Get some dehydrated veggies if you can.

I just soaked noodles and steamed broccoli in some hot water from the kettle here at work, so no reason why it wouldn't work on the go.

A good insulated mug/themos would be a great thing to have on you.

 

Additional thought: If you had an insulated mug, you could actually put the noodles, seasonings, and even some fresh veg in there, seal it up, and then when you're ready fill it up with "boiling" water, shake it up good, and let it sit for 10-15 min or so. Tahdaaaa...
 

I haven't skied in years. Let me know if you figure out the portable microwave.

      Gluten free stuff

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      The following two lists are very helpful for anyone who is gluten sensitive and needs to avoid gluten when shopping. It's very important to learn to read labels and understand sources of hidden gluten, and to know some general information about product labelling--for example in the USA if wheat is a possible allergen it must be declared on a product's ingredient label like this: Allergens: Wheat.

      Gluten free stuff

      By trents · Posted

      Tammy, in the food industry, "gluten free" doesn't mean the same thing as "no gluten". As Scott explained, the FDA (Food and Drug Administration) allows food companies to use the "gluten-free" label as long as the product does not contain more than 20 ppm (parts per million) of gluten. This number is based on studies the FDA did years ago to determine the reaction threshold for those with celiac disease. And the 20 ppm figure works for the majority of celiacs. There are those who are more sensitive, however, who still react to that amount. There is another, stricter standard known as "Certified Gluten Free" which was developed by a third party organization known as GFCO which requires not more than 10 ppm of gluten. So, when you see "GFCO" or "Certified Gluten Free" labels on food items you know they are manufactured with a stricter standard concerning gluten content. Having said all that, even though you may read the disclaimer on a food item that says the spices may contain wheat, barley or rye (the gluten grains), you should be able to trust that the amount of gluten the spices may contain is so small it allows the total product to meet the requirements of gluten free or certified gluten free labeling. I hope this helps.

      As soon as I see gluten free I read the labels. I always find stuff that I cannot have on the products them selfs. Like spices, when the labels says  everything listed and then after like say garlic salt then the next thing is spices. When it says that that can contain wheat and other things I can’t have..

      Do some people with Celiacs develop hypoglycemia?

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      While hypoglycemia isn't a direct, classic symptom of celiac disease, it's something that some individuals with well-managed celiac disease report, and there may be a few plausible explanations for why the two could be connected. The most common theory involves continued damage to the gut lining or nutrient deficiencies (like chromium or magnesium) that can impair the body's ability to regulate blood sugar effectively, even after gluten is removed. Another possibility is delayed stomach emptying (gastroparesis) or issues with the hormones that manage blood sugar release, like glucagon. Since your doctors are puzzled, it may be worth discussing these specific mechanisms with a gastroenterologist or endocrinologist. You are certainly not alone in experiencing this puzzling complication, and it highlights how celiac disease can have long-term metabolic effects beyond the digestive tract.

      Paracetamol, aka, acetaminophen (Tylenol) just does not do anything for me as far as pain relief. It does help with fevers, though.
