Will the rice vermicelli break during transit?

Do I need to soak the rice vermicelli first?
A:Soaking before cooking is recommended for even heating:

-
How long is the ideal cooking time?
A:Soup: Cook in boiling water for approximately 1–3 minutes (adjust based on thickness).
Stir-fry: Soak until soft first, then stir-fry quickly to prevent the vermicelli from becoming mushy due to overcooking.

What is the secret to preventing breakage and mushiness?
A:Perfect Soaking: Too short leaves it hard; too long makes it break easily.
- Short Time, High Heat: Rice vermicelli cooks quickly; avoid prolonged boiling.
- Season First, Add Noodles Later: Allow the vermicelli to absorb flavors without soaking in salty liquid for too long.
- Branded Rice Vermicelli: Due to stable production processes and resistance to souring, it is much easier to master.
