Bhutanese Organic Millet Noodles by FINN Food

Millet is one of the oldest cultivated grains in the world, and in the Bhutanese highlands it has been a staple for centuries. These noodles, made by FINN Food of Thimphu, blend local Bhutanese millet flour with wheat flour and pure Himalayan water to create a noodle that is light, slightly sweet, and gently nutty. Like the quinoa noodles in the FINN range, they carry the company’s simple promise: “Taste the Tradition.”

The noodles cook in just four to five minutes, holding their shape with a clean, springy bite. The flavour is delicate and slightly sweet, with a beautiful golden hue from the millet. They pair well with light broths, gentle sauces, and fresh herbs.

How to enjoy these millet noodles in Bangkok:

  • The Traditional Bhutanese Way (Thukpa): Simmer a light broth with ginger, garlic, and seasonal vegetables. Add cooked FINN millet noodles, sliced greens, and a soft-boiled egg for a soothing highland soup.
  • The Bangkok Way: Toss cooked noodles with sesame oil, soy sauce, a little chilli, sliced spring onion, and fresh herbs.
  • The Cold Way: Rinse cooked noodles under cold water and toss with shredded vegetables, sesame dressing, and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.
  • The Kids Way: Cook briefly, drain, and serve with a mild tomato sauce and grated cheese.

Made by FINN Food (NTT Fengsi Production) at the Startup Center, Changzamtog, Thimphu. Vegetarian. Product of Bhutan, Land of Happiness.

These noodles are a particularly good fit for children and for anyone with a sensitive stomach, as millet is one of the gentlest grains on digestion. They also make a beautiful cold noodle salad: rinse after cooking, toss with sesame oil and a splash of rice vinegar, and top with cucumber, carrot, and a soft-boiled egg.

How to make Bhutanese Organic Millet Noodles FINN Food (100g)?

These noodles cook quickly and are forgiving of technique.

  1. Boil Water: Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil. Add a pinch of salt if desired.
  2. Cook: Add the noodles and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Drain: Drain and rinse briefly under cold water if using in a cold dish. For hot dishes, drain and add directly to the broth or pan.

Tip: Millet noodles pair particularly well with mild, buttery flavours. Try them with a little brown butter and toasted almonds for a simple, elegant dish.
