Explore the Refreshing World of Somen Noodles at Tomato Japanese Grocery

Welcome back to the Tomato Japanese Grocery blog! Today, we're diving into the cool, refreshing, and utterly delightful world of somen noodles. Perfect for hot summer days or as a light meal year-round, our somen noodle collection offers something for everyone.

What Are Somen Noodles?

Somen noodles are thin, white Japanese noodles made from wheat flour. They are known for their delicate texture and are traditionally served cold with a dipping sauce. Their light and refreshing qualities make them a favorite during the warmer months, but they can also be enjoyed hot in soups and other dishes.

A Versatile and Delicious Choice

Somen noodles are incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of dishes. Here are some popular ways to enjoy them:

  • Cold Somen (Hiyashi Somen): The most common way to enjoy somen noodles is chilled, served with a dipping sauce called tsuyu. Add toppings like sliced green onions, grated ginger, and sesame seeds for added flavor and texture.

  • Somen Salad: Combine somen noodles with fresh vegetables, tofu, or seafood, and toss with a light dressing for a refreshing and healthy salad.

  • Hot Somen Soup: Somen noodles can also be served in a hot broth with vegetables, proteins, and seasonings. This is a comforting option for cooler days.

  • Somen Stir-Fry: Give your somen noodles a quick stir-fry with your favorite vegetables and protein for a fast and tasty meal.
