Duncan Robinson’s A-Sha Noodle Bowl

Duncan Robinson's A-Sha Noodle Bowl

Duncan Robinson of the NBA’s Miami Heat first tried A-Sha Noodles in college, “Noodles are kind of like a staple of a college athlete’s diet. But, for me, it was a healthy alternative to your standard ramen. It allowed me to easily prep my own meals and also get something that’s healthy and preparing me to compete and play.”

Now, being in the league, Duncan values feeling his best and a big part of that is the fuel he’s putting in his body. Quality matters to him. He only puts the highest quality, premium ingredients into his body with an emphasis on having plant-based protein in his diet. Check out Duncan’s A-Sha Noodle bowl below and make it yourself at home!

Young Chang of A-SHA Foods

A-Sha Noodles is the cult-favorite imported noodle brand known for its patented, 100-year-old legacy noodle recipe from Tainan, Taiwan. All of A-Sha’s noodles are simply made with wheat, salt and water, and receive a unique 18-hour air-drying technique (never fried or frozen).” This is a big (and healthier) departure from the familiar instant noodles which are fried. A-Sha noodles are made with finely sifted and fiber-rich whole wheat flour resulting in each serving having at least 10g of plant-based protein.

“Founded by Young Chang in 2015, A-Sha Foods USA is an AAPI-owned brand that has quickly become the go-to for healthier, more nutritious instant noodles. A-Sha’s signature air-dried noodles originated from a small factory in Tainan, Taiwan that began producing noodles with a century-old recipe in 1977. Starting in just one market in California a decade ago, A-Sha Foods USA is now available at some of the most wide- reaching retailers, including Amazon, Costco, Walmart, Target, T&T, Sobey’s and H-Mart. A-Sha Foods USA has been featured as one of the top 100 fastest growing private companies recognized by Inc. Magazines‘s Inc 5000 list 2020, 2021 and 2022, and selected as one of the Top Ten Taiwanese Instant Noodles Of All Time for more than five consecutive years.”

In addition to their best-selling noodles, they’re also known for their buzzy noodle collaborations with iconic brands like Hello Kitty and David Chang‘s Momofuku, and limited-edition pop culture noodle sets. The NBA Miami Heat’s Duncan Robinson is their Global Brand Ambassador. He discovered A-Sha Noodles in college as a healthful alternative to the ever-popular instant ramen. Since their introduction to the USA in 2015 A-Sha Noodles has aimed to consistently give back to their local communities by partnering with organizations throughout their local Los Angeles community and beyond.

A-Sha Noodles original product in the United States was the Vegan-friendly, Hakka Wide Noodles. They are air-dried (not fried) to seal in freshness, flavor and nutrients. They quickly reconstitute in boiling water.
