  • Number of Servings: 1
Ingredients
2 oz bundle of noodles (roughly one packaged bundle)8 T tsuyu or 3T Memmi diluted1 stalk of green onion sliced thinlyoptional 1/4 sheet of nori cut into thin stripsoptional a little grated fresh ginger
Directions
Bring small pot of water to boil, add noodles, and cook for around 5 minutes until soft. Let sit 3 minutes to finish cooking. Drain into a colander and then wash under running water until cool. Swish it around with your hand to remove some of the starches.

You can eat it by straining it on a zaru (bamboo colandar plate) and dipping the noodle into undiluted tsuyu or slightly diluted Memmi, or serve in a bowl with diluted broth. The broth can be cold or hot. Typically, the zaru soba is cold, and soba in a bowl is hot.

In both cases, add the onion and ginger to the broth. Add the nori to the noodles.
