More About This Recipe

  • Pancit is the Filipino culinary term for noodles. Traditionally, the Filipino recipes for pancit use rice noodles, which are perfect for stir-frys, soups or pad thai. They tend to be more delicate than wheat-based noodles, but they are lower in fat and are a great gluten- and carb-free option for those who still adore pasta despite their dietary restrictions. This recipe uses vermicelli rice noodles which means the noodles are slender. Sometimes wheat flour is added to the noodles, so double check the label if you are gluten-free. If pancit sounds delicious, but you’re not so sure about the shrimp, you can make chicken pancit instead! But if you’re a seafood aficianado, you won’t want to miss these seafood dinners.
