Description
The Shinsunmi Wheat Noodle (Somyeon) (available in packs like 900g) is a very thin, traditional Korean noodle staple known for its delicate consistency and versatility in various hot and cold dishes. These fine, dried wheat-based noodles offer a smooth, light, and resilient “bouncy” texture that absorbs flavors well without becoming mushy if cooked correctly.
- Texture: Somyeon noodles are primarily made by a slow stretching process using vegetable oil, resulting in very thin, thread-like strands (less than 1.3 mm in diameter) that are air-dried. They have a delicate and smooth consistency when cooked, with a satisfyingly chewy or elastic quality that is highly valued in Korean cuisine.
- Flavor: The noodles themselves have a mild, unflavored taste, which makes them the perfect canvas for a wide array of broths, sauces, and toppings.
- Simple Ingredients: Most authentic somyeon products have a simple ingredient list, typically containing just wheat flour, water, and salt (or occasionally just flour and water in some premium brands), without preservatives or artificial additives.
- Quick Cooking: Due to their thinness, these noodles cook very quickly, usually in just 2 to 3 minutes in boiling water.
- Post-Cooking Rinse: A crucial step in preparing somyeon is rinsing them thoroughly under cold running water immediately after boiling to stop the cooking process, remove excess starch, increase elasticity, and prevent them from sticking together.
