About Somen salad

Somen Salad is a refreshing dish rooted in Japanese cuisine, perfect for warm-weather meals. It features thin, delicate somen noodles, typically served chilled, paired with an assortment of fresh vegetables like cucumbers, carrots, and radishes. Often topped with proteins such as shrimp, shredded chicken, or tofu, it’s dressed in a light soy-based vinaigrette or sesame dressing that adds a savory, nutty flavor. Packed with vitamins from the vegetables and protein for satiety, it’s a balanced option for many. However, its health profile depends on the dressing’s sodium and sugar content and the portion size of noodles, which are refined carbohydrates. Choosing whole-grain noodles, reducing dressing, or incorporating more vegetables can enhance its nutritional value while maintaining its delicious, crisp characteristics.
