• Made with raw mozuku seaweed from Okinawa and high-quality Hokkaido wheat flour
• Thick, chewy noodles feature the unique slightly sweet, briny taste of mozuku
• Convenient package also includes umami-rich soy sauce broth

These unique udon noodles have a thick, chewy texture thanks to the addition of mozuku, a type of brown seaweed found only in the seas surrounding Okinawa, Japan’s southernmost tropical islands. Mozuku is known for its slimy texture and slightly briny taste with a hint of sweetness which adds a special local twist to udon noodles. Seiwa Shokuhin makes these mozuku noodles using two simple ingredients: raw mozuku harvested around Iheya Island in Okinawa and wheat flour produced in Hokkaido. The mozuku accounts for about 30% of the noodles while the umami-rich broth is made from organic soy sauce and seasonings from the seas of Okinawa.
