With tongs or a slotted spoon, transfer the noodles to a large bowl of cold water.
Repeat with the remaining noodles.
Drain and arrange the noodles in a single layer on clean kitchen towels.

Roll up firmly and place seam-down in the prepared pan.
Repeat with the remaining noodles and spinach mixture.
