Sesame Yuba Noodles Recipe (Make-at-Home)

Yields: 2 Servings

From The Hodo Kitchen

Sesame yuba noodles are a high-protein, savory dish made with yuba. Also known as tofu skin, yuba is the delicate, protein-rich film formed during our traditional tofu production. With a tender and slightly chewy texture, yuba is a versatile, gluten-free alternative to grain-based noodles for bold sesame and tahini flavors.

Think silky, protein-packed ribbons coated in a rich, nutty sesame sauce.

This recipe provides a step-by-step guide to how to prepare yuba and recreate the flavor of Hodo’s Sesame Tahini Yuba Noodles at home. The creamy sesame sauce coats every strand of yuba in delicious flavor.

Ready in minutes, it’s an easy go-to for quick weeknight dinners or an Asian-style noodle salad. Whether you’re craving something warm, satisfying, or a refreshing chilled meal, this dish brings the innovation of our California-based production directly to your home kitchen.
