This is the very basic way we eat Soba (Buckwheat Noodles) at our house. We usually eat them cold with dipping sauce (Sobatsuyu). We top Soba with shredded Yakinori (Roasted Seaweed) and green onions. You can put Wasabi in your dipping sauce if you like.
1. Boil 4 bunches of Soba (about 16 oz) for 5-7 minutes in a pot full of water with 1/2 teaspoon of salt.
2. When it's chewy but firm in the center, it's ready. Empty the entire pot of Soba into a strainer. Wash the noodles with cold water. Makes about 4 servings.
