Shinshu Soba Noodles

A healthier alternative to wheat-based pasta, Japanese soba noodles feature the delicately nutty flavor and filling fiber of buckwheat. The made-in-Nagano Shinshu Soba Noodles are cut a little thicker than standard noodles which allows you to better enjoy the satisfying slight chewiness in every bite!

What we love about it:

• Delicious cold or hot!
• Gathered in individual bundles so you can conveniently make a single-serving.
• Comes in a zipper-top bag for convenient storage
  

Instructions:

• Fill a large pot with water and boil (1 liter of water per noodle bundle recommended).
• Add noodles and stir gently to prevent sticking. If water bubbles over, lower cooking temperature.
• For cold dipping noodles, cook for seven minutes. For hot noodles, cook for six and a half minutes.
• Drain noodles into a colander, and pour cold running water over the noodles to help remove the slipperiness of the starch and cool the noodles. Swish the noodles to prevent sticking, with chopsticks or your hand (if using your hand, make sure the noodles have cooled a bit).
• When serving cold: Enjoy by dipping into mentsuyu (a sauce made from dashi, soy sauce, mirin). For more flavors, add some yakumi (condiments) like wasabi, grated daikon radish, grated ginger, nori strips, and chopped green onion.
• When serving hot: Enjoy in soup (made from dashi, mirin, soy sauce, sake, salt). Popular toppings include shrimp tempura and chopped green onion.
