Asian Best Rice Flake (Banh Cuon Kho)

Rice flakes, known as Banh Cuon in Vietnamese, is rice that has been parboiled and then rolled, flattened, and dried to produce flakes. The flakes come in different thicknesses depending on the pressure used in the flattening process. Rice flake noodles have long been a treasure in Chinese and Southeast Asian cuisine and are always found in soup dishes. The flakes are able to absorb a large volume of liquid when used in various dishes, so they absorb flavors well.
