that looks fucking delicious, OP what it's called?

Mori Soba.

Though, I can't guarantee it's called that everywhere.

It's soba (buckwheat noodles) served ice cold with a subtle dipping sauce. Often comes with wasabi (to mix into the sauce), spring onion, toasted seaweed, and tempura flakes as garnish.

Amazing summer time dish.

I like soba noodles.

I like Japanese food, but is there any food in the whole of asia that's actually healthy? Seems like everything revolves around white rice, white rice noodles, and insanely high sodium soy sauce and MSG

It's a summer dish and they're not just 'cold', they get cooled in ice water right after they're made so they don't stick together weirdly like normal noodles if cold.

To add to that, it also washes them well so they're pretty much starch free by the time they make it to the plate.

It's fucking delicious.

Of course, soba is also used in a ridiculous amount of dishes, which includes serving them hot. As a noodle in and of themselves, they are pretty amazing.

That reminds me, whatever happened to 100bowl/jap-food-pic-dumper-guy? I was gone for a couple of months and then when I came back he was apparently nowhere to be found.

He stopped posting after the tsunami hit Japan a while back... take your guesses.

>> No.4184310

>>4184309
Nah that's wrong. He posted again a while ago but I think his camera broke or something.
