Japanese Buck Wheat Noodles, Soba




Have you eaten Japanese buck wheat noodles called Soba?

I have seen several cooking magazines such as Martha Stewart Living, Everyday with Rachael, Taste of Home and etc. introduced cooking receipts with using Soba.

Soba is made of buck wheat and seems to be good for your health.
There are two ways to cook soba: cold soba and soba in hot soup.

The photo above is one kind of Japanese soba product that I purchased at a Japanese grocery store, Pacific Mercantile Company in the Sakura Square in down town Denver.

In order to make dipping source for cold soba and hot soba soup, there are seasoned soy source called Men Tsuyu (Men means noodle, Tsuyu means source) or Men mi, or other similar names.

It is very easy to cook Soba at home.
Hope you get chances to try eating Soba!
