Of course, it is **"no added salt."**
We use buckwheat from Hokkaido.
The rich, flavorful soba-yu is highly recommended.
◆ How to enjoy delicious soba:
All Yamamoto Kajino soba contains more than 50% buckwheat flour. For each product, follow the specific boiling instructions and times based on whether it is 100% or 50% buckwheat flour for best results. Please refer to these instructions.
Among them, 100% buckwheat soba requires a special boiling technique.
Please use these tips as a reference to enjoy delicious soba at home.
〇 How to boil soba:Use a large pot with plenty of boiling water.Be careful to boil the soba in a large pot with plenty of boiling water. The starch in soba can dissolve quickly if not heated properly.
The water temperature drops slightly when the noodles are added, so ensure the water is boiling vigorously enough to produce a rolling boil. The higher the buckwheat content, the more starch is needed (to form a sticky consistency), so lukewarm water can cause the noodles to break.
〇 How to rinse soba:Cool the noodles with cold water and gently knead to rinse.After boiling, transfer the noodles to a colander and rinse with cold water. Especially for noodles with a high percentage of buckwheat flour, they are most fragile immediately after boiling, so it is recommended to soak the colander in a bowl of water. Rinsing with water while not sufficiently cooling the noodles can cause them to break.
Once thoroughly cooled, gently knead with your hands to remove stickiness and rinse off the slimy surface.
〇 How to enjoy soba:Here is an example of a way to savor the flavor of soba:
1. First, taste the soba without any dipping sauce to enjoy its natural flavor and texture.2. Consider the balance and dip the tip of the noodles into the sauce.3. After enjoying the aroma, slurp the noodles quickly and thoroughly.
◆ Condiments that go well with soba:
Add flavor and nutrition with condiments such as green onions, wasabi, grated daikon, shichimi (seven-spice chili), sesame, shiso, ginger, myoga, nori, yuzu, etc. They offer various benefits.
Many connoisseurs, called "soba enthusiasts," are particular about how to use condiments (how to eat). Some common ways include:
- Enjoying wasabi directly on the noodles without dissolving it in the dipping sauce.- Placing a small amount of condiments on the tongue between bites as a palate cleanser.- Not using condiments at all.
Feel free to find your preferred way of enjoying condiments.
〇 Health benefits of soba-yu:Consuming the nutrients of soba in its entirety.
Soba-yu is the hot water left after boiling soba. It contains many nutrients such as rutin and choline. Drinking soba-yu allows you to fully absorb the nutrients of soba.
We believe that delicious soba-yu can only be obtained from soba with more than 50% buckwheat flour. All our products are made with at least 50% buckwheat flour. Especially, the "Original 100% Buckwheat Soba" and "Buckwheat with Tartary Buckwheat" are made from 100% buckwheat flour, with no added salt. Enjoy the cloudy (yellow for Tartary buckwheat) and smooth-textured soba-yu.
