Low Carb ramen?! Yes, there is such a thing, and you can make it at home with what is being lauded as the next “IT” super food: Kelp. Low calorie, fat free, zero carbs, gluten free, no sodium kelp noodles!

Before you say Ewwwww, let me tell you that kelp noodles taste much like rice noodles but without the carbs because they are plant-based. You’ve probably had rice noodles in an Asian salad or Vietnamese vermicelli bowl – love those!! Ramen is all the rage – I mean, who doesn’t love a bowl of steaming noodles? – just like chicken soup, it is food for the soul that helps to heal whatever may be ailing you. On gray, chilly or rainy days, ramen is a craving I can’t resist. Steamy, salty, savory, spicy, sinus-clearing goodness. The only issue is the number of carb calories in that glorious bowl, plus, the amount of sodium is through the roof. I think I’ve discovered the answer: Gold Mine Natural Foods Kelp Noodles.

Known as wakame, arame, kelp, hijiki, seaweed is a staple ingredient in Japanese cooking and is prized for its salty, umami character in the culinary world. It is also on its way to becoming the next “It” superfood. I mean, haven’t we had enough of kale already?! Kale is everywhere, being massaged, baked, blended, juiced, souped and sautéed and this leafy green nutrient-dense food is sure to have to share the spotlight soon. I still love kale in all its embodiments, but my husband cringes at the word. He’s had enough of kale, and Hatch Chiles *wink*.

    Okay, so these are not the same as shiritaki noodles? I think those are made from konjac, which is maybe a tuber? If so, then I will give them a try. Always looking for low-carb options. Thanks!
