- A traditional Japanese favourite.
- Contains buckwheat - Wheat-free.
- Delicious in soups, stir fries or as lightly seasoned accompaniment.
- Cooks in under 9 minutes.
Most soba noodles are made from a mix containing around 60% wheat and 40% buckwheat. These buckwheat soba noodles are a special version with no wheat. Because they contain wholegrain buckwheat, they have a rougher texture than traditional soba noodles, which are usually smooth. The taste is different and nuttier.
These buckwheat noodles are wheat-free, because buckwheat is not actually a type of wheat. Organically grown.
These noodles tend to come out a little softer than the standard wheat-based soba noodles, which is not surprising as the wheat-based noodles contain the natural gluten (in the wheat) that keeps the noodles firmer. Which type you prefer will depend on taste. Overall, both types of soba noodle are delicious.
Ingredients:
Whole buckwheat flour* (98%), sea salt. * denotes organically grown.
