Izushi Sara Soba
It is generally called Nihachi-soba (twenty percent wheat flour and eighty percent buckwheat flour). It is buckwheat noodles combining 2% of flour with 10% of blended buckwheat flour with natural sweetness that is made of stone milled husked buckwheat seeds.
Izushisarasoba consists of a 5-dish set per person as it has been developed for enjoying as much as you wish without wasting anything and the people who are in the know of buckwheat noodles add on some green onions and pour the sauce directly on the dish. Now there are various condiments, however, so we serve fresh seasonal condiments to protect the original taste at our restaurant.
We used carefully selected homegrown buckwheat flour.
We give moisture equally all over the flour, adding water quickly with rhythmical movement
Knead using all your strength and finish into a slightly hard dough. It’s finished when the dough holds together and gets smooth.
Push the dough into a round shape using a rolling pin to easily shape a perfect circle when rolling out the dough.
Roll out the dough into a round shape equally using a long rolling pin.
Fold the rolled out dough with a rolling pin slightly narrower than the buckwheat noodle-cutting knife.
Use tegoma or komaita (cutting guide board) and slice at the right angles of the dough.
