Originally, there is a five-color somen called "Goshiki Somen," which is a local dish from Matsuyama City in Ehime Prefecture. It is made by a company called Goshiki Somen Morikawa and is said to be the original colored somen＊

This company has added two more colors to the usual five to create "Iroiro Somen."

Even people from Ehime are occasionally surprised, saying, "Oh! I thought somen only comes in five colors! There are seven colors of somen~," indicating that it is a rare product not widely known.

The price is 972 yen per box.

Recipes for Using Iroiro Somen♡

Start by arranging the seven colors on a plate♡

Top the somen with shiso leaves, okra, shrimp, egg, salmon, and more. It's perfect for a Star Festival meal＊

Gachapin & Mook and SpongeBob!

Create characters from Sesame Street, Snoopy, Totoro, Minions, and Little Green Men using somen♡ The faces are made of cheese and nori, and the hands use bento picks＊

This is also Forky from Toy Story 4 and characters from Sesame Street♡ The colorful characters of Sesame Street are perfect for Iroiro Somen＊

The idea of placing somen in a takoyaki plate to make each character! Each piece is bite-sized, making it hard to decide which one to eat first...

If you cool the takoyaki plate before serving the somen, you can enjoy it cold!♡

Making colorful koi nobori (carp streamers) for Children's Day is also wonderful!

Perfect for bento too♡ A colorful Minions bento!＊
