Today, we’re going to be answering the question: are yakisoba noodles gluten-free? But first, let’s take a look what they are and what goes into making them.
Yakisoba is a dish that comes from Japan. It may look like ramen, but it most certainly isn’t. It’s usually made in one pan and is super easy to make. It’s a Japanese classic stir-fry dish that is sweet, sour, and absolutely delicious.
Yakisoba and soba noodles are not the same. Whilst you usually make soba noodles from buckwheat, which despite the name is not made from wheat, that is not the case for yakisoba.
As you can probably tell from the last section – they are not gluten-free. The main ingredient in yakisoba noodles themselves is wheat flour. Following a gluten-free diet, wheat is not safe for consumption.
