Matcha Green Tea Japanese Noodles: 7/10
🚨NEW ITEM🚨 I have never been more curious to try a new item than with these brand new Matcha Green Tea Japanese Noodles! These noodles are made from wheat and buckwheat flour, matcha powder, and salt. Unfortunately, I’ll be the first to tell you, I couldn’t taste ANY matcha in these noodles, so I would say it’s just used for color and to make the name sound more fun in my opinion. They tasted like buckwheat noodles, which are still tasty, but I was expecting these to be extra special. I prepared these noodles by tossing them in a sesame oil and chili onion crunch sauce and added sautéed cucumbers and edamame with furikake sprinkled on top. We added a dash of soy sauce at the end to add more flavor and the meal itself was delicious but I didn’t find the noodles to be extra special. Each bag is $2.99.
Have you tried these yet? What did you think?
😋😋😋😋
Excited to try these!
I had these last night in their miso ginger soup & bone broth…lovely texture 🔥
I eat the same kind of these in a japanese brand. They’re nothing AMAZING nor do they have matcha flavor either but more so for the health conscious people so it’s not straight flour. Buttttttt I think you like spicy so if you add some of the Korean gochujjang , sesame oil , sugar and soy sauce . Top it with that furikake and BAM! Korean spicy noodles 😬

Good to know. I had the same thing from another Japanese brand and also couldn’t taste the matcha 🤷🏻♀️
31% sodium?!? 😳😳 But why 😩
Can you review the coconut cold brew coffee????:)!
Why wheat flour?! 🤦🏽♀️
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I just can’t get behind this at all. I love matcha but the idea of matcha noodles just does not sound appealing to me. 😭😥
What is chili onion crunch??? Is that also from TJ?
@sarina_ahmed yay or nay? 🤔
We tried these in our weekly taste test. I thought they were pretty good! Definitely a much milder flavor than I was expecting.
@traderjoesfoodreviews I had a hunch the matcha flavor wouldn’t stand out considering it’s a very mild tasting tea powder to begin with, but I like that the ingredients list is short and basic!

Where do you find the chili crunch? I’ve tried 3 times with no luck
took your suggestion and made these w sesame oil, chili onion crunch, edamame, and cucumber, but added some air-fried sriracha tofu protein and would def make again
Glad to see how you prepared these…was going to add them to a bowl or soup dish. I am a little relieved it does not have a strong taste actually; I plan to cook them soon and hear the family review.
Always appreciate your reviews! This has been one of those items I put and take out of my cart, because I’m not sure how it’ll be.
@emilyannemacleod only bc I saw them on your stories and thought you might be interested!
I love these! I prepare them with rice vinegar and coconut aminos and sautéed it with tofu and veggies! Super yum
Do you eat these hot or cold? I bought these to try but not sure how to prepare soba noodles
These are my favorite when going to a Japanese resto. They are zaru cha siba, served cold, with ice under. You dip it in soba sauce with wasabi and some restaurants serve it with raw quail egg which you crac k
If you try these cold it’s kiss kiss- tossed in some soy sauce/ sesame oil, little water to balance it out, and toppings like cucumber and sesame seeds- amazing I loved these
