Buckwheat Noodles (Soba) with Shiitake Mushrooms
Soba is a variety of Japanese noodles made from buckwheat flour whose origins date back to the Middle Ages.
Monks would eat the noodles as their last meal before going on a 10-day fast as the belief was that soba doesn’t make your body feel heavy or tired.
Soba noodles are often served drained and chilled in the summer and hot in the winter accompanied with a soy-based dashi broth.
In this recipe, we decided to pair them with umami rich shiitake mushrooms covered in a delicious sweet and salty glaze. This recipe works well when chilled as well.

The overall impression is one of quality!
The overall impression: is one of quality! The thick paper, colourful pictures, nutritional details, allergy info, … and preparation is very well explained, I have seen worse. Another positive surprise when started to cook is the fact that all the ingredients are measured so there is no food waste. We found the ingredients of good quality and the preparation time was accurate.
So yummy!!
Highly recommend this if you are trying plant-based and have no idea where to start. The chef creates meals with items I would have never put together, but they all taste so wonderful and the food is beautiful! Be prepared to prep and cook… but the payoff is worth it. So yummy!!
