Wheat is much richer in nutrients such as calcium, iron, zinc and dietary fiber than rice, and noodles are the most effective way to supplement natural food after completing the initial transition of complementary food addition with iron-fortified rice cereal. Hakubaku comes from Japan, which has always paid attention to the quality of ingredients, and it took 12 years to develop a machine to remove the black thread of wheat grains, and became the pioneer in the popularization of "Maidai Rice" in Japan, and its refined wheat products account for more than 60% of the market share in Japan.
 
Like China, Japan has a deep noodle-eating culture, with its flour crushing and somen somen techniques being among the best in the world. Hakubaku noodles are produced and produced entirely in Japan, using vacuum kneading and a two-stage aging technique to achieve a smooth, springy texture that is close to that of hand-rolled noodles without adding salt.
 
The reason why babies can't eat ordinary noodles with their parents is because in order to improve gluten, ordinary noodles often add a lot of salt, which will cause greater pressure on the baby's kidneys. Hakubaku's two-stage aging technology combines flour particles and water to make the noodles elastic and remove sodium from the ingredients, making them truly "salt-free."
 
According to the different raw materials and the length of the noodles, Hakubaku's baby noodles are divided into several series: unsalted minced noodles, unsalted dried noodles and golden land, each series has somen noodles, cold wheat noodles, udon noodles and other varieties, which are 1.33mm, 1.75m and 4mm thick, which can adapt to the bite needs of different babies.
 
The unsalted dried noodles series and the unsalted minced noodles series are made of Japanese wheat flour as the main raw material, and the protein content is kept at about 10%, although there is a certain gap with the pasta made of durum wheat as the raw material, but it is already the leader in ordinary noodles, and the content is much higher than that of brands such as Heinz, Fangguang, Yiwei, etc., and the gluten is resistant to cooking, and the Q elastic is unremitting.
 
The 2.5cm series of unsalted minced noodles for babies are divided into minced noodles, udon noodles and pasta according to the thickness and firmness of the noodles, and are nominally suitable for 5 months, 7 months and 9 months of age, respectively. Although the finely chopped noodles that can be eaten at the age of 5 months have a soft texture and are not easy to get stuck in the throat, they are not fortified with iron and are not recommended to be consumed when the baby is just 5 months old. Babies who taste complementary food for the first time should take rice noodles fortified with iron as the first bite of complementary food, and then add broken noodles after the baby's swallowing and chewing ability has been improved to a certain extent. The noodles of this series are packaged in ziplock bags, with a specification of 100g/bag, and the price of 33 yuan is not cheap, and the combination pack is relatively affordable.
 
When the baby is about 1 year old, you can try the uncut unsalted noodle series, with a fork to train the baby's smoking ability, and transition to the chopsticks learning stage. The specifications of this series are 180g/pack, the price is about 22 yuan, which is much more cost-effective than the unsalted crushed noodles series, and it is also recommended for parents of babies under 1 year old to buy.
 
While importers translate Hakubaku's Chinese name as "Hekang Beigu", users tend to call it "the land of gold." In fact, Golden Land is Hakubaku's most famous organic noodle line, using high-quality wheat from Australia's Golden Valley, certified by the Australian AGO and JAS certified by Japan. As a whole wheat noodle, Golden Land is richer in wheat protein than the unsalted noodles series and the baby unsalted minced noodles series, the wheat fragrance is rich, and it is also salt-free and additive-free, and the price of 270g bags is about 43 yuan, but the energy is only 1/5 of other series, and it is not suitable for infants and young children who grow and develop rapidly.
 
In the stage of adding complementary food, some parents tend to supplement their babies with various nutrients, which may cause digestive discomfort in the baby. After completing the transition with fortified iron rice cereal, the types of complementary foods that babies can consume tend to be richer, and it is more recommended to have a balanced intake of grains, meat, vegetables and fruits, mainly relying on food to complete nutritional supplementation.
