Are Noodles & Company Japanese Pan Noodles High in Histamine?

Noodles & Company Japanese Pan Noodles

High histamine

These pan noodles are high because of the Japanese pan sauce.

Food here is usually assembled to order from components that were prepped earlier in the day, so it tends to be fresher than a drive-through and less fresh than cooking at home. Histamine builds up as protein foods sit, so how long the chicken or beef has been in the warmer matters as much as what is in the bowl. Treat the rating above as a starting point.

Gluten

This dish combines udon noodles with Japanese pan sauce, broccoli, mushrooms, carrots, black sesame seeds, and cilantro.

The pan sauce leads — the sweet-savory Japanese pan sauce lands high, and that is the main driver of the rating.
Noodles and mushrooms add to it — the udon noodles and the mushrooms both sit moderate, so they keep the dish up even before the high sauce.

The broccoli, carrots, and sesame are the gentler parts, but the pan sauce is what makes this one high.
