The fact that its 100% buckwheat makes it much healthier.
Shirakiku
middle choice is not the best choice in the most situations of your life😹
Dumb question but what do you eat with Soba noodles?
Now how to cook it
Hello!
Well, name of noodles or company would have been nice.

Waiting for your back support
Best to buy soba noodles. Tried to make 100% buckwheat noodles and it was a massive failure.
Can you please do udon noodle’s including frozen and ready to use.
Thank you so much for information 🙏🙂
I absolutely love ATK….. their recipes are wonderful ❤️❤️
If people don't mind it not being organic then they will go for the middle one. If you prefer organic then the organic one is best.
As a guy who hates drunk noodles, these soba noodles might be for me.
Love Jack…dislike soba noodles intensely
This isn't wrong, but if you're going to do zaru-soba, or cold buckwheat noodles, you should go for 100% buckwheat as the flavor will be somewhat diluted by chilling it. For yakisoba or similar dishes that are served warm or are further cooked, obviously go for the ones with more structure. In hot weather though, chilled 100% buckwheat noodles with a good dipping sauce, some nori and sesame, and maybe some tofu or room temperature tempura is pretty amazing.
Depend on your own personal preference! Overall the Japanese famous brands are the best! 🤭
I learn so much from Jack, he keeps it real and always, well almost always, keeps the consumer taste-point or pocket book, in mind! Keep them coming!
Not a fan of these
"And remember, Buckwheat is your friend." – OTAY!
Or as usual, the item that was made in its country of origin (Japan in this case) is the best.
Great information! Thanks chef.
