Kelp noodles are a unique, translucent noodle made from the inner flesh of kelp, a type of seaweed. Originating from East Asian cuisine, they are prized for their crunchy texture and versatility in raw, vegan, gluten-free, and low-carb dishes. Composed primarily of water, sodium alginate (a natural substance derived from kelp), and a trace amount of fat, kelp noodles are exceptionally low in calories and carbohydrates, making them a popular choice for health-conscious diets. They provide small amounts of essential nutrients like calcium and iodine, which support thyroid and bone health. Free from wheat, gluten, and common allergens, they are a great substitute for traditional pasta or rice noodles. However, kelp noodles are low in protein and fiber, so they pair well with nutrient-dense sauces, vegetables, or proteins for a balanced meal. Their mild flavor makes them a versatile culinary option for salads, stir-fries, and soups.
