While it is best to use rice noodles for this recipe, you can actually use practically any type of noodle you prefer or have at hand- even Ramen. Some noodles need to be boiled before in another pot, so you’ll need to keep that part in mind.  The best way to go around it is, of course, using rice or Ramen noodles- you just need to throw them in the same pot as the soup, and you’re done! Plus, they absorb all the salty, sour, and spicy flavors of the soup very nicely.
