What is "soba"?
Soba is a type of thin, buckwheat noodle that is a staple of Japanese cuisine. The noodles are typically served in a hot or cold broth made from dashi, soy sauce, and mirin, along with various toppings such as sliced scallions, tempura, and sliced kamaboko fish cake. Soba noodles can also be served cold, with a dipping sauce made from soy sauce, mirin, and dashi, and are often garnished with wasabi and sliced scallions. Soba noodles are generally considered to be a healthier alternative to other types of noodles, as buckwheat is a good source of fiber and protein. Soba is a popular dish in Japan and can be found in many Japanese restaurants around the world.
