Easy Cold Somen | 簡易冷素麵


Cold somen is a light dinner that my family like to enjoy in the hot days.  The noodles take only a few minutes to cook and you will spend the most preparation time on grating daikon and slicing scallion.  To make the meal even simpler, I used the store bought soba dipping sauce instead of making my own.  Within 20 minutes, this chilled somen is ready to be served.

INGREDIENTS:
3-4 bundles Somen (Soba)
3 Scallion, thinly sliced
20 gram Ginger, grated
1 Daikon, peeled and finely grated
Store bought Soba Dipping Sauce

DIRECTION:
1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil.  Add about a teaspoon of salt.  Add somen and cook according to the package; about 2 minutes.

2. Drain the somen.  Run it under cold running water until it totally cools down; drain it again.

3. To serve, combine the dipping sauce with some scallion, daikon, and ginger.
