Tempura soba noodle soup 12/17/08


I made soba noodle soup with vegetable tempura for lunch today.

I love mushroom tempura with a lot of grated daikon (white radish) and tempura sauce.

I went to Japan in this summer with my vacation.
I went to a very famous tempura restaurant, called "Tenichi" in Ginza Tokyo.

I saw the pictures which Henry Kissinger, President Clinton and another famous politicians were eating a huge shrimp tempura at this restaurant.

In here, they served a lot of grated daikon with the tempura sauce.

I was surprised with the amount of grated daikon, not only like 1Tbsp, they serve like 1 cup of grated daikon for each customer's tempura sauce.

That was so delicious!

So, since then I make a lot of grated daikon for my tempura. I love the"Tast"


I will show noodle soup recipe for you today.
This recipe is good for soba, somenn, udon noodle soup.
Especially in winter time, we love this noodle soup for lunch.


Noodle soup: 4 cup water, 1Tbsp dashi powder, 3 Tbsp cooking sake, 3 Tbsp mirin, 1 Tbsp soy sauce, 1/2 tsp sugar, 1/4 tsp salt.


Direction: a pan + water ~ boil ~ add all the seasoning ~ add the steamed noodle ~ done!


* I put all my vegetable tempura on the soba soup for my blog picture,
but you should enjoy with putting the tempura on the side dish and take it to the soup one by one, otherwise the tast of tempura will become soggy.


Enjoy !
