Harusame (Glass Noodles) introduction

Harusame (春雨, Glass noodles) is a specialty product of Sakurai City and Gose City in the Yamato region, where noodle factories produce over 60% of Japan’s total glass noodle supply. It’s an integral part of the area’s local industry. These fine, translucent noodles are known for their springy texture and smooth finish, making them a versatile ingredient for stir-fries, stews, and various other dishes. Despite their lightweight appearance, they are surprisingly filling, which is why dishes like Harusame soup are especially popular among women looking for diet-friendly meal options.
