Method:
- Boil 4~5L of water in a large deep pot. Cook the soba noodles by following the instructions on the packet or until it becomes the desired texture. Al dente is said to be the best texture for soba noodles.
- Once the soba noodles are cooked, drain, cool in ice water.
- Take out the noodles, drain excess water and serve with cold soba sauce and garnish. To eat, add desired amount of garnish in the soba sauce. Grab some noodles and dip halfway in the sauce before consuming. Soba noodles are best consumed within 5 mins after cooled for best texture and flavour.
