Shodoshima Somen
With a single smooth slurp, the silky texture and firm chew resonate pleasantly. If you look closely, the noodles have a subtle golden hue. The savory aroma of sesame oil gently spreads through your mouth. Shodoshima Somen is one of Japan's three major somen varieties, boasting a history of over 400 years. It is said to have begun when islanders learned the production methods of Miwa in Nara and brought them back home; even today, artisans meticulously finish each strand using traditional hand-stretching techniques. The most defining characteristic is the use of pure sesame oil. By gently coating the surface of the noodles, a strong elasticity, smoothness, and rich aroma are created. Dip them into cold dipping sauce and slurp them down. This bundle, raised on the island, will make you forget even the summer heat.
