APPLES AND PEARS: You can use a hand held spiralizer or an electric spiralizer for both apples and pears, but be sure to cut off the stems. You must first cut the apples or pears into wedges so that they will fit inside the hand-held spiralizer.

  • You can use a vegetable peeler to make apple noodles without a spiralizer, but it can be difficult to get a lot of noodles with a hand-held peeler. I recommend using an Apple/Potato Peeler Corer. As you can see, they are very effective and save the peel when preparing applesauce. When using handheld spiralizers, use apples with thin skins, like Gala or Golden Delicious. Spiralized apple kimchi salad serves as inspiration for a fruit noodle recipe. It’s also a great way to add texture to baked goods like my paleo apple pie!

RHUBARB: Use a julienne peeler or vegetable peeler to make shavings of rhubarb “noodles.” The key is to find thick stalk rhubarb. Shave from one end to other, similar to asparagus. Rhubarb shaving noodles are a great recipe for crispy toppings because they bake quickly. You could also use them in a hot fruit casserole.

Ingredients for these carrot noodles

  • I finally gave sesame oil a try because it has always been on my list of things I “should probably learn something about.” This oil has a rich, almost nutty flavor that complements the many other Asian flavors in the recipe.
  • Hoisin Sauce: By far the most magical ingredient. This strong mixture of sugar, soy, chili, garlic, and occasionally vinegar or garlic adds a powerful Chinese flavor punch.
  • Soy Sauce: Soy sauce is what these carrots need to add that umami flavor.
  • Orange Juice: Just a dash does sweet citrus wonders!
  • Ginger: Freshly grated ginger adds just the right amount of balance to the hoisin sauce and completes the dish.
  • Carrots: These Asian carrot noodles obviously require carrots! Full-size carrots work best, and as long as they’re thoroughly cleaned, you can skip the peeling process.
  • Sesame Seeds: Adding sesame seeds to a dish adds a bit more crunch and flavor to bring out the nutty flavor of sesame.
