About Somen noodles

Somen noodles are a thin, delicate type of Japanese noodle made primarily from wheat flour, salt, and water. They are light and versatile, often enjoyed chilled with dipping sauces or served in soups. Originating in Japan, somen is a staple in traditional summer cuisine due to its cooling preparation. As a source of carbohydrates, somen provides quick energy, making it a satisfying option for light meals. While low in fat, somen is not gluten-free and may lack significant protein or fiber, so pairing it with nutrient-rich foods like vegetables, lean proteins, or tofu is recommended. Relatively low in calories, somen is considered a healthy choice when enjoyed in moderation and within a balanced diet. However, sodium levels can rise depending on the seasonings or sauces used, so mindful preparation is key for a more nutritious dish.
