“Somen noodles are one of my favorite noodles to have on hand. They’re perfect for a quick dinner! They cook up in minutes and are great combined with a miso broth, some soft eggs and sesame seeds.”
—Haley Laube, eCommerce Culinary Coordinator
Mild, delicate and nutty, these handmade somen noodles from Shimanohikari cook up tender and smooth to pair perfectly with bold flavorful broths, sauces and more. Thin and long, they come in individual bundles for easy portioning, require little time to boil and take on a pleasant chew when cooked. Over a two day process, the noodles are handmade from high quality wheat flour, local sea salt and sesame oil, unlike other brands that simply use flour, water and oil. They are then sun-dried for a light and flavorful result. Use in stir-fries, soups, stews, chilled noodle dishes and more.

We test everything we sell. Here’s how we’d use this.
Boil and add to bold and flavorful broths, sauces, stir-fries and more. They work especially well in our Korean Spicy Chilled Noodles (Bibim Guksu) and Tuna Gochujang Noodles.
In a large pot, bring plenty of water to boil. Add somen noodles and cook for 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Once cooked, drain in a colander, rinse with cool water for 10-20 seconds.
Put the noodles in a bowl of cold water and continue rinsing by hand. When done, place the noodles on a plate and put ice cubes on it to keep the somen freshly cold.
