Buckwheat Soba

Nice hot bowl of buckwheat soba. The noodles were really tasty. Soup was had a generous amount of veggies and mushrooms. #soba #buckwheat #japanesefood #japanese #veganjapanesefood

Firsthand experience of trying such a dish. “Soba” Not a big fan of mushrooms but except that, overall ok. The soup tastes really nice. I’m glad I’m not disappointed.

soba was al-dente and nice, but felt the broth was salty ; could also do w more mushrooms and greens for this carb-heavy dish

Broth is extremely flavourful. Strong umami and mushroom flavour. But, it is rather salty in my opinion because towards the last spoonful, my mouth felt a little numbed by the saltiness. Other than that, it is rather tasty with the delicious soba noodles, a piece of beancurd skin, some mushrooms, some crisps, and a handful of spinach.

Love this dish. In my pre plant-based days I've had the alternative version and this one holds its own in all aspects. Of course less the animal fat residue. 😉
