Refreshing! Slippery! Umeboshi-Natto Soba Noodles - noodles

Method

• Chop up the green onions.
• Use chopped natto or chop up whole natto by putting it on a piece of aluminum foil and chopping up roughly.
• Cool the noodles following package instructions.
• Put the mentsuyu sauce, umeboshi paste and natto in a bowl and mix together well while not letting it foam up.
• Drain the noodles and cool in cold water, and drain well again.
• Add to the mixture from Step 2 and mix well.
• When everything has been well combined, mix from the bottom so that the natto comes up to the top.
• Add the green onions and other toppings and serve.
• I tried adding a boiled egg.
• Mix them in or enjoy on the side -- however you prefer!
