Since we just officially started the Summer, here’s a very simpe, but elegant cold noodle dish. And also, assuming you have the ingredients, it is very simple to make. I”ll post a recipe later for making a dipping sauce, you can also buy tsuyu at most Asian grocery stores.

Ingredients
Dried Somen Noodles
English Cucumber……1
Grilled Unagi…… purchased pre-cooked from Asian grocery
Green Shiso
Dipping Sauce (Tsuyu)

1. Cook the noodles according to the directions on the package. Chill noodles under cold water after cooking and drain well.
2. Thinly slice cucumber and sprinkle lightly with salt and let sit for 15 minutes. Gently squeeze excess water from cucumber.
3. Chop shiso.
4. Slice Unagi into 1 inch pieces.
5. Top cold noodles with cucumber, unagi and shiso. Serve with dipping sauce.
