What the heck is long rice?

[spryte]

I'm having a luau and making Chicken Long Rice. Long rice seems to be described as cellophane noodles, bean threads, or just long rice. What is it??

The more recipes I looked at, the more confused I got! Then I found this at Chef2Chef:

Long Rice: Cellophane noodles made from mungbean flour.

Hope that helps!
