For an authentic flavor and taste, use rice noodles, but if you can’t find these Barilla no 3 will work great too.

If you don’t love tofu, you can skip it altogether or try different methods to cook it beforehand for added flavor.

Use firm or extra firm tofu so it stays together when you cook it.
