Kishimen introduction

Kishimen (きしめん, Kishimen) is made from wheat flour mixed with salt and water, then kneaded into dough. Its signature characteristics are its wide, flat, and thin noodles. The noodles have a silky smooth texture and a delightful slipperiness, while being softer with less chew, making it easy to eat even for small children. This unique combination of wide, delicate noodles and rich, flavorful dashi has made Kishimen a beloved and familiar comfort food in Nagoya for generations.
