Fresh noodles are loved for their soft texture, springy bite, and ability to absorb flavour beautifully in soups, stir-fries, and quick meals.

At Lian Huat, our fresh noodles are made for convenience and everyday cooking — and with the right storage, you can always have delicious noodles ready whenever you need them.

Refrigerating Fresh Noodles

Fresh noodles should always be kept refrigerated to maintain their texture, freshness, and quality.

Lian Huat fresh noodles have a 5-week shelf life from the date of manufacture when stored correctly. The best before date is always printed on the packaging for easy reference.

Refrigeration Tips

  • Store noodles in their original sealed packaging
  • Keep refrigerated at all times
  • Store noodles in the inner compartment of the fridge, where the temperature is colder and more stable
  • Avoid storing noodles in the fridge door, where temperatures fluctuate more frequently
  • Avoid opening the package until ready to use
  • Always check the best before date on the packaging

Once opened, we recommend consuming the noodles within 1–2 days for the best texture and freshness.

Can You Freeze Fresh Noodles?

Yes — fresh noodles freeze very well.

Lian Huat fresh noodles can be frozen for up to 4 months while still maintaining their chewy texture and delicious flavour when cooked properly.

Freezing is a great option for:

  • Meal prep
  • Bulk buying
  • Busy households
  • Reducing food waste
  • Quick and easy meals anytime

Common Storage Mistakes to Avoid

Leaving noodles at room temperature too long

Fresh noodles should not be left out for extended periods, especially during warmer weather.

Storing opened noodles uncovered

Exposure to air can dry the noodles out and affect texture.

Keeping noodles in the fridge door

The fridge door experiences more temperature fluctuations, which can reduce freshness over time.

Overcooking frozen noodles

Frozen noodles only need a little extra cooking time. Overcooking may make them too soft.

Why Fresh Noodles Are Worth It

Fresh noodles are popular because they offer:

  • Better texture
  • Faster cooking times
  • More authentic flavour
  • Superior sauce absorption
  • A soft and chewy bite

Whether you’re making stir-fried noodles, noodle soup or a quick weeknight dinner, properly stored fresh noodles help create delicious meals with minimal effort.
