Step 1

Stir together your soy, mirin, sake or rice wine and dashi powder in a saucepan and gently bring to the boil, stirring occasionally.

Step 2

Take it off the heat and set aside, allowing it to cool completely before use.

Step 3

(Optional) Garnish with a sprinkling of aonori powder or thinly sliced nori for extra flavour.

Step 4

If you’re ready to eat, go ahead and bring a medium pot of water to the boil, then add in your soba noodles. Cook according to packet directions (usually around 3 mins or so), then drain and remove from the heat.

Step 5

For the most refreshing experience, allow your noodles to cool completely before serving. You might like to run them under cold water to speed this up, or pop them in the fridge for 10 mins or so before serving so they cool down more quickly.
