[ 2 Packs ] Hime Japanese Dried Somen Noodles, 28.21-Ounce - SET OF 10

I bought the 2 Pack of Hime Japanese Dried Somen Noodles, 28.21-Ounce.These noodles are pretty tasty, but they are very salty!DO NOT ADD SALT IN YOUR COOKING WATER!To remove the saltiness from the noodles, after I cook them at a medium boil for 3 minutes, I rinse them about 4 times in really cold water. then, I let them soak for about a minute or 2 in very cold water. Then, I then rinse them 2 more times. After that, I am very pleased with the flavor and texture for these cold Somen noodles.I do think that for around a $15 price point for 2 packages, these are priced a bit high. No Asian stores near me though so I guess I am paying more for convenience. I love Somen Noodles though, so I just keep buying these. Enjoy!

Buy them whenever you see them because they're an import and I'm always afraid they'll be a shortage. They cook quickly in a small pot of broth, 32 ounces of broth,,,they only take seconds to cook, then add a boiled egg opened and laid atop the noodles, add a handful of sliced up scallions, use the organic ones from Whole Foods, they're the best. You can add some meat if you want and have a steaming bowl of noodles with veg....filling and healthy and so delicious.

Directions say to boil for 3 min. I cut it to 2 1/2 min to avoid mushy noodles and it was perfect. Rinsed in cold water, strained and refrigerated until ready to assemble lunch. They'll be clumped, but will loosen with some oil or dressing drizzled on 'em.

Well, it's a bit pricey. I sort of hesitated, but I knew this particular product is very delicious, so I bought it. The noodles have very good texture, nice al dente, and flavor is good too. I used to buy Tomoshiraga brand, because it's a lot cheaper, but you get what you paid for. Tomoshiraga is edible, but the texture is awful. You'll never get good al dente.This one is pretty close to what I know from Japan where I grew up.

Did not purchase for the flavor, cause it really has none - but for texture that doesn’t get gummy when other ingredients are added ... worth every sent! Also good with a bit low sodium soy sauce&wasabe! ENJOY!😀!

We four all had a very uncomfortable feeling after eating. We had diarrhea and I doubt if this is the true Japanese noodle. I need a full refund and I suggest that you start testing if this noodle met the production quality. I need full refund and request you to test your noodle's quality and safety.

nice

I enjoy these noodles and making my own receipts to use with them
