Calla Lily Recipes 食譜篇 - 蕎麥湯麵 (SOBA NOODLES IN HOT SOUP)

蕎麥湯麵 (SOBA NOODLES IN HOT SOUP)

Ingredients :-
100ml mirin or white grape juice
300g dried soba noodles (3 bundles per packet)
3 stalks spring onions, slice thinly
50g shredded nori (available in packets)
Sesame oil
Soup ingredients
1.2 litre water
100ml Japanese light shoyu
2 tablespoons dashi-no-moto

1. To make the soup, place the mirin or white grade juice in a large pan. Bring it to a boil, then add the rest of the soup ingredients. Bring it to a boil again. Lower heat and cook for 1 mins. Turn off heat.

2. To cook the noodles, place noodles in a large pan with at least 1.5 litres of boiling water. Stir frequently to stop them from sticking. (Noodles should be slightly softer than al dente pasta). Drain noodles and wash under cold water.

3. To serve, heat soup and divide noodles into individual bowl. Add hot soup and sprinkle sliced spring onions, shredded nori and a few drops of sesame oil.

TIP : Mirin is japanese sweet cooking rice wine similar to sake. Dashi-no-moto is japanese fish granule seasoning. Nori is thin, dried seaweed sheets. Soba is made of buckwheat flour. These items are easily available at the japanese section of major supermarkets.
