Cold Noodles

Cold noodles are awesome. You take them out of the cold water, dip it in the sauce, and enjoy. Add  perfectly boiled egg, fruit, and vegetables, and you’ve got an energizing meal! I’d say cold noodles are in the top 10 of my favorite Japanese foods.

    Ha ha…you seem VERY Japanese. I usually don’t like eating / drinking cold stuff..hence even in summer my coffee is hot! However, cold noodles “somen” really do hit the spot on a hot summer’s day.

    They are great for the summer. But now I am ready for the hot soba for winter.

    JYankee - Thanks… I think? Haha! Have you ever tried the cold noodles warm? Not so tasty.

    Tornadoes28 - I’ve eaten soba a few times. I can manage it about once a year. It reminds of shoe laces when I’m eating a soba dish.
