¿Qué es Soba Noodles?
Soba noodles are thin Japanese noodles made primarily from buckwheat flour, often with a proportion of wheat flour. They are characterized by their distinctive nutty flavor and firm, slightly chewy texture. Soba is a versatile ingredient, served both chilled with dipping sauces and hot in broths and stir-fries.
"While often containing wheat, pure 100% buckwheat soba offers a fantastic gluten-free alternative with a more intense, earthy flavor."
