Organic certification ensures Hakubaku noodles are produced without the use of chemical pesticides, herbicides or insecticides, or genetically modified ingredients. By buying Hakubaku’s organic Japanese noodles, we are also contributing to the long-term viability of Australia’s organic wheat farmers.
Somen
Somen is the thinnest of all Japanese noodles. They are almost like vermicelli, and are quick to cook. They are made from a hard organic wheat that gives a different texture and bite.
Somen is often served cold in Japan. During the hot summer months it is even served in iced water with a dipping sauce. Somen is also added to stir fries and soups, including the famous Vietnamese noodle soup, pho.
