Udon is a thick white wheat noodle with a texture suitable for more hearty dishes, especially Stir Fry and Soup. Made from organic soft wheat, it is high in adhesiveness and elasticity with a pleasing texture and flavor.
Although Udon noodles can be served cold, these thicker, soft, but slightly chewy, white noodles are usually served hot with various toppings, added to a hotpot dish and cooked with other ingredients, or sometimes included in a curry soup.
Udon can replace soba in traditional soba recipes and some dishes even mix soba and udon noodles to give a variety of textures.
