Great video, thank you. Can’t wait to try this.
I find it a little weird to be adding mirin into a dressing, that's like adding cooking wine to a dressing.
Cucs’ but not Rads or Snowps or Scalls 😆 😂 😆
👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
It’s called a ‘tiny whisk’ and all your viewers either know or should know that!
Looks great!!
I am so going to try this whenever I can!
This lady seems super nervous to me
What did she do with the .8 ounces of noodles after?
LOL at the tiny tools. Made me laugh at the same time you did.
Thanks Becky I can't wait to try this recipe!
Yummy 🤤
Thank you for the great recipe! I will definitely try to make it this weekend. I would add paprika slices for more colors, and slice of avocado on top for the buttery taste to it 🙂
I want to add broccoli and cauliflower to it after they re so very tender 🙂
I also like to add a bunch of edamame ("Asian" soybeans) and serve it with shoyu on the side
Looks great! Becky is so cute!
Looks absolutely delish despite bring quick and easy with readily available ingredients, which isn't always the case with Asian cooking. I'd suggest looking into the version of this salad that's done by the Japanese who immigrated to Hawaii in the late 1800s to early 1900s. My mother was from Hawaii and had a great recipe that captures the simpler laid-back vibe of Hawaii. There's probably about 2/3 or even 1/2 of the ingredients although one of the tasty things she used that isn't in your recipe is kamaboko (fish cake).
Also, please don't take this as an insult but rather as an amusing anecdote — the Japanese are known for confusing R and L when they speak English and it is indeed very funny. All cultures do similar things and I'm always amused when Westerners (of which I'm one being a fourth generation Japanese-American) pronounce nori as "no-ree". The actual pronunciation is "no-dee", which always confused me that in English it's spelled nori with an r, so I guess it's really the fault of whoever coined that spelling way back when. I wonder if it was a Japanese person confusing their R's? Although if that were the case wouldn't it be pronounced "no-lee"? Language is a rich and frequently amusing thing.
That looks so good. I have to try it…and I tried it and a delight. More filling than a light salad, lighter than a meal, a breeze to put together. What more can you ask! Thanks Becky for the recipe.
Hello friend 🙋♀️ , thank you for all recipes 😍 always simple, unique and delicious 😋 good luck and have a nice day 🥰😉
I think this was the healthiest recipe you ever had here. 🤔
Buckwheat is sour? I ate buckwheat just like rice and it was good.
I'd use the whole pack of noodles. I'd end up just tossing that other .8 of the pack, after it sat in my cabinet for months forgotten.
Good to know that soba noodles are already salted! ❤️
I'd cut the nori into strips first, then dry toast it in a pan. Also, I'd add the nori to the noodles just before eating so they'd stay crisp.
Thank You Becky!!
I'm unable to get Eden soba, I haven't seen that here in the Midwest in a couple of years, due to supply chain. I found a Japanese udon made in Australia which is good but it's as thin as angel hair. I miss the Eden because it's thicker.
