Make the Summer Food Nagashi Soumen at Home!

When you think of typical summer foods, what comes to mind? Perhaps watermelons, ice cream or some type of grilled meat? We think that nagashi soumen should be the next food for you to keep in mind. In Japan, this dish has turned into an annual summer event.

Nagashi soumen originated on the Japanese island of Kyushu in the 1950’s, and from there expanded into a nationwide tradition. It is especially popular with children! You can create a typical nagashi soumen setup by propping up bamboo pieces that are split lengthwise. You then pour soumen noodles and water down the bamboo, and participants can take noodles while they run down the bamboo.

You can probably tell from the description that nagashi soumen is typically an outdoor affair, but luckily there are ‘nagashi soumen makers’ with which you can enjoy nagashi soumen indoors as well, which is very useful for the situation that most people are currently in.
