Soba Noodle Salad with Miso Dressing

August 15, 2020 by Benjamin and Koshiki Leave a Comment

Japanese Soba SaladSoba noodle salad is an easy and healthy summer salad made with buckwheat noodles, tons of fresh vegetables with miso dressing.  

Soba, known as buckwheat, is an everyday stable noodle in Japan and can be eaten hot or chilled. Some soba noodles are made of 100 % buckwheat but, many consist of wheat or mountain potato (Nagaimo) starch to help bind the noodles together.  

Soba is not only delicious but also healthy: a good source of mineral manganese which helps with bone health and support the nervous system, Vitamin B-1, high in protein, and soluble fiber.  

Enjoy this soba noodle salad on hot summer days on its own or with grilled meat, fish, or with some hard-boiled eggs.

Can't go wrong with fried pork 😁  うまっ😋  Serving: 2 people  INGREDIENTS:
¾ pound pork loin (cut into two large slices or four smaller slices)
1 cups of panko bread crumbs
¼ cup four
1 egg, well beaten with a tablespoon of cold water
Salt and pepper  2 cups of vegetable oil for deep frying  For the home-made Tonkatsu sauce:
2 tablespoons Worchester sauce
2 tablespoons ketchup
1 tablespoon soy sauce  DIRECTION:
Make the sauce by mixing the Worchester sauce, ketchup, and soy sauce in a small saucepan.  Heat the sauce until everything is well-combined.  Keep it warm.  Cut pork into either two large slices or four smaller slices.  The meat should be about ¼ inch-thick.  Tenderize the meat if necessary and cut slits into any fat or membrane so the meat will not curl as it deep-fries.  Lightly salt and pepper the pork. 
Dust the pork in flour, dredge them in egg mixture, then press them onto panko bread crumbs.  The pork should be covered completely in bread crumbs.
Heat the oil to 300 F and fry the pork one at a time, turning it as it brown's about 3 minutes total.  Take the pork out of oil and dry it in an oil drying rack or paper towel. 
Cut the pork into strips and serve them hot with home-made Tonkatsu sauce.  #cookjapanesefoodathome
