YAKISOBA



Yakisoba image

Soba noodles are a Japanese noodle made with buckwheat flour; if your supermarket doesn't have them in the international foods aisle, try an Asian market. This is not a strictly authentic yakisoba, but it's awfully good!

1 medium onion, cut into julienne strips
1 tablespoon freshly grated ginger

  • Serve yakisoba immediately. It's best when it's hot and fresh.
