Eden Mung Bean Pasta

EDEN Mung Bean Pasta (Harusame) is made of stone ground mung bean flour mixed with pure water to form dough. The dough is extruded forming thin noodles that are boiled and naturally air dried. The dried noodles are then soaked in cold water for 10 to 20 hours, folded into bundles and naturally dried again before weighing and packing. Mung beans, Phaseolus aureus, are believed to have originated in India where they are called 'moong dal,' or 'green gram' and have been a staple for thousands of years. Mung beans are traditionally used in making 'dal,' a thick bean paste widely consumed in India. Eventually it was discovered that the starch of the mung bean could be used as a thickening agent in soups and stews, and with the invention of extruding machines it was found this starch also made excellent noodles.
