Let’s Make Pancit
I make Pancit all the time and have written about it throughout my years of foodblogging but nothing is in the archives due to moving hosts so take this as one for the record. A step by step and also a video because I might as well. Pancit, here we go.
There are various rice noodles in grocery stores. You’re lucky if you live nearby an Asian store. Grab some and always have in hand. This particular Vermicelli noodles is available at Food Lion. Walmart has some variation too under the International aisle/shelves.
