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.
