Nutritional values

Soybeans enrich this meal in two ways: liquid as cream and solid as tofu. Both products are light, digestible and cholesterol-free. Their abundant protein contains the essential amino acids that humans need but cannot produce themselves.

A small leaf salad goes well with the noodles. It provides additional vitamins, minerals, and protective secondary plant substances.
