Preparation for cooking
The product is based on starch obtained from golden mung bean. The spread of funchose in the world began from China, so it is still considered a national Chinese dish. Mung bean is also grown in India, Korea, and Japan. Thus, it is possible to combine opinions and say with confidence that the fungoza comes from Southeast Asia.
Due to the fact that it is made from starch, it received the second name - glass or starch noodles. And this is not surprising, because after cooking, it presents thin, white threads of a transparent (glass) appearance.
