Champion is the brand most Filipino cooks reach for, and the Premium Bihon is their flagship product: a fine, glass-like noodle made from cornstarch and water that cooks quickly, absorbs flavour readily, and holds its texture without turning to mush. This 400g bag contains 7 servings of 56g each, making it a practical size for family meals or batch cooking.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat sets Champion Premium Bihon apart from generic rice vermicelli is its consistency. The noodles are uniform in thickness, which means they cook evenly throughout. There's no clumping, no uneven texture, and no gummy patches. Once soaked and stir-fried, they take on a slightly chewy, springy quality that's distinctly different from wheat noodles. They're light without being insubstantial, and they carry soy sauce, fish sauce, and aromatics beautifully without becoming soggy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ingredient list is refreshingly short: cornstarch, water, and stabilisers (monosodium phosphate and guar gum). There's no wheat, which makes Champion Premium Bihon naturally gluten-free, a useful quality for households with dietary restrictions. It's also fat-free, protein-free, and contains no salt, so the seasoning in your dish is entirely in your hands. The product is manufactured in the Philippines and imported into the UK by Carron Contracts Ltd, based in Cumbernauld, so you're buying through a proper UK importer with a traceable supply chain.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIf you're building out your Filipino noodle cupboard, browse our \u003ca href=\"\/collections\/noodles\"\u003efull noodles range\u003c\/a\u003e for pancit canton, sotanghon, and other Filipino and Southeast Asian noodle varieties alongside Champion Bihon.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eHow to Cook Champion Premium Bihon: Pancit Recipes and Filipino Noodle Dishes\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe standard preparation for bihon is straightforward. Soak the dry noodles in cold water for about 10 to 15 minutes until they soften and become pliable but not fully cooked. Drain well before adding to the pan. From there, the noodles finish cooking in the stir-fry itself, absorbing the sauce and aromatics as they go. Don't soak them for too long or they'll become too soft to stir-fry properly.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere are the most popular ways to cook with Champion Premium Bihon:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePancit Bihon:\u003c\/strong\u003e The classic Filipino noodle dish. Stir-fry garlic and onion in oil, add your choice of protein (chicken, pork, prawns, or a combination), then add sliced vegetables: cabbage, carrots, green beans, and spring onion. Add the soaked bihon and season generously with soy sauce and a little fish sauce. Toss everything together over high heat until the noodles are cooked through and well coated. Finish with a squeeze of calamansi or lemon. Serves 4 to 6 from a single 400g bag.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePancit Bihon Guisado:\u003c\/strong\u003e A slightly richer version using pork belly, chicken liver, and dried shrimp (hibi) for depth. The dried shrimp adds an umami base that makes the dish taste like it's been cooking for hours.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBihon Soup:\u003c\/strong\u003e Cook the soaked noodles directly in a well-seasoned chicken or pork broth with vegetables and sliced meat. A lighter, more comforting alternative to the stir-fried version, particularly good in colder months.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePancit Bihon with Palabok Sauce:\u003c\/strong\u003e Serve cooked bihon topped with a rich, prawn-based palabok sauce, hard-boiled eggs, tinapa flakes, and spring onion.
