Soba!.Sauce!.Chopped scallions!.Wasabi paste!.
You can purchase the above in Asian Supermarket!. Boil soba accordingly to the instruction from the pack!. As for the rest above ingredients, all you need to do is pouring the sauce in a pretty or rather a petite bowl and sprinkle chopped scallions in the sauce or simply sprinkle on top of the cooked soba!. As for wasabi, simply slam a dollop of it on the side of the plate, and pretend to be artistic!. It works, dear! :) It worked for me though!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
