New to Soba Zucchini Noodles? Here’s all you need to know!

Soba Noodles aka Buckwheat Noodles

Soba – which is Japanese for buckwheat – is a Japanese staple food recently gaining popularity in the West. Buckwheat is a nutritious, gluten-free seed or pseudocereal. However, not all soba noodles are made solely of buckwheat flour. Some brands might add some wheat or rice flour to the mix so make sure to read food labels if you are allergic to gluten or just want to avoid them in your diet altogether.

Next to being super delicious, buckwheat is a good source of plant protein, fiber, and energy. Since buckwheat does not contain gluten, it is a great alternative to pasta for people with celiac disease or gluten intolerances.
