What is this food?
Sotanghon soup (soup with sotanghon/bean thread noodles), usually seasoned with broth and mixed with vegetables and sometimes meat or seafood.
Why it matters to health
This soup is generally light per 100g, with low fat (about 1.4g) and a small amount of carbohydrates (about 2.8g) plus a little fiber (about 0.2g). The sodium is moderate to high (about 233mg), so it’s good to watch how salty the broth is—especially if you eat this often. If your sotanghon soup also has vegetables and lean protein, it becomes a more balanced option for your meals and snacks.
Healthier tips
- For better balance, add more non-starchy vegetables (e.g., cabbage, carrots, pechay) and lean protein (chicken, fish, tofu).
- Use a lighter hand on fish sauce, seasoning, and bouillon to manage sodium.
- Keep your serving portion for sotanghon as your main carb for the meal; pair it with vegetables and protein.
- If you’re having it as a snack, choose a smaller bowl and add extra veggies for fullness.
