So good!! Better than the bottled soba sauce. I’m never buying the sauce again. Not too salty at all. For protein, I paired this with thinly sliced grilled lemon chicken breast and it was amazing. Thank you for the recipe!!!!
Tasted wonderful but salty. I recommend using low sodium soy sauce. I used a powdered dashi I found on Amazon.
Very tasty noodle dish. I forgot the sesame seeds. I did add the nori though. I used a homemade version of dashi broth. Thank you for the recipe.
