Vermicelli

Vermicelli rice noodles are even thinner than angel hair pasta. This is a dessert in a sweet, creamy milk sauce. Enjoy warm or cold.

1 cup toasted and chopped vermicelli rice noodles (see picture, each noodle should only be an inch or two long)
4 cups milk
½ cup sugar (taste and add more if desired)
Cashews and raisins (optional to throw in; see picture)

Chop and lightly toast the vermicelli noodles (in a frying pan). Boil the milk and sugar together. When it starts boiling, add the vermicelli. Cook till done (about 5 mins).

(not my photo but wanted to put it up here as an example)

  3. Good question... I think that you can buy it toasted. Look for it in oriental stores, I don't think it's the kind of food that you can get at a normal grocery store.
