Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to roast plain Bambino vermicelli before using? For best results, yes. Dry-roasting in oil or ghee develops a nutty flavor and prevents clumping when liquid is added.

What is the difference between Bambino plain and roasted vermicelli? Plain (unroasted) vermicelli requires an extra roasting step during cooking. Roasted vermicelli can be added directly to dishes, saving time.

Can vermicelli be used in savory dishes? Absolutely — vermicelli upma is one of the most popular South Indian breakfast dishes, seasoned with mustard seeds, curry leaves and vegetables.
