Noodles (main dishes)


Soba 

Buckwheat noodles. When cooking dried noodles, quickly chill boiled noodles in cold water and rub them with hands until sliminess on the surface disappears. Rinse well by changing water until water runs clear.This process makes a huge difference in texture and taste when served either cold or hot.
