soba with cucumber, radish sprouts & microgreens

I love soba noodles! Hearty and tasty, they make a quick and flavorful meal. After cooking and rinsing the noodles under cold water, I seasoned it with ponzu, sesame oil, chili oil, and black sesame seeds. Refreshing and cool batons of cucumber, crunchy spicy radish sprouts, and delicate microgreens crowned the seasoned noodle. After a sprinkling of sliced nori I had some seriously good & fast eats in my hands.

    Where do you get your soba noodles. Am I retarded? I can’t ever seem to find them.

    This dish looks so good. I want soba noodles in my life.

    hi grant,
    i usually get soba noodles at the korean market or at mitsuwa (centinela) when i’m there once in a while. i should stock up, just ran out!

    susan, this looks so good. nice use of a commonly used noodle. i recall seeing another soba noodle dish in your flickr photostream with what looked like fresh tuna. did you use the same dressing for that one too? that looked absolutely yummy too.

    OH! and i forgot…your serano ham wrapped salmon entry inspired me to do a similar dish; couldn’t find any good serano ham so i used some really great aged procuitto instead…thanks for being such a great muse!

    I remember eating this quite often at home. One quick question….do you add anything in the ponzu sauce. I remember my stepmom adding something grated in the sauce but I forgot what it was? Hmmm……

    hi justin,
    hitachino would be awesome with this too.

    hi ellen,
    you forgot the “o” at the end of your “yum” :)

    hi elyssa,
    i was trying to redo hwaedupbap with soba noodle in the other noodle dish. i didn’t like how the picture came out and wanted to redo the dish so i used this one instead. your salmon looks delicious! the combination of salty ham and fish is yum.

    hi hannah,
    for the soba noodle dipping broth grated daikon is used. i like~ plus it’s suppose to help you digest the buckwheat noodles.
