Fideos are thin, short noodles commonly used in Spanish and Mexican cuisines, often featured in soups like sopa de fideo or in dry preparations like paella-style dishes. Made primarily from wheat flour and water, they are similar in taste and texture to vermicelli pasta. Fideos are a versatile ingredient, absorbing the flavors of broths, spices, and sauces. Nutritionally, they provide a source of carbohydrates, making them a quick energy boost. While they are low in fat, their nutritional profile can vary based on preparation methods; dishes laden with heavy oils or sodium-rich broths may lessen their health benefits. To enhance their healthfulness, pair fideos with nutrient-dense vegetables, lean proteins, or heart-healthy oils.
