Ingredients

Instructions

  • Mix soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, brown sugar, ginger, pepper in a mixing bowl; set aside. Chop green onion finely.
    Sesame soba noodle sauce is made and green onions are chopped
  • Cook your buckwheat noodles according to the package directions (usually 3-4 minutes) When the water comes to a full boil, pour a little bit of cold water to calm the water down. Add more water as it boils up again. This tempering helps the noodle texture to be chewier. Rinse the noodles under cold running water to cool completely. Drain the noodles and set aside.
    Soba noodles are cooked and rinsed in cold water.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or skillet and saute half of the green onion for 30 seconds. Add the sauce and bring to boil and thicken for 15 seconds.
    Chopped green onions are stir-fried with sesame soba noodle sauce.
  • Add the noodles and the remaining green onion and toss through. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and crumbled seaweed (if using) on top.
    Soba noodles are added to green onion sauce and served with crumbled seaweed topping.
