Tempura soba

Tempura soba or tensoba is a traditional noodle dish. It consists of buckwheat soba noodles and tempura-battered ingredients such as vegetables or seafood. The dish is served in two ways – with a hot broth consisting of dashi and soy sauce, or cold, when cold soba noodles and tempura are dipped into the cold sauce that’s served on the side. It is believed that the dish dates back to the mid-Edo period. Nowadays, it’s usually garnished with chopped green onions.
