Somen

Somen

EverydayDry

Somen is a traditional Japanese wheat noodle characterized by its exceptionally thin, delicate strands and pale ivory color. These noodles are produced by stretching wheat flour dough with vegetable oil, creating a smooth texture that cooks rapidly in boiling water. Typically served chilled with light dipping sauces during summer months, they provide a low-fat carbohydrate source, though their refined wheat composition makes them unsuitable for gluten-free diets.
