Based on fish, fresh vegetables, grains and noodles the Japanese diet bears a striking similarity to the Mediterranean diet. The history of noodles and pasta is lost in time, but it is certain they have both been around for 1000s of years. The reason is simple: they are nutritious, filling and quick to prepare.
It is no coincidence that the Japanese and Mediterranean diets are believed to play a key role in creating the healthiest, longest-living populations on the planet.
The recipes on this website are an introduction to the world of flavours and the multitude of easy meals that can be based on versatile, wonderful authentic Japanese organic noodles. Hakubaku has created five varieties of delicious, authentic Japanese organic noodles for Australian kitchens.
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.
