SUKINA Soba Noodles - Japanese Buckwheat Soba Noodles

Tasty 👍🏼

I think I have a new second favorite type of noodles! They don’t take too long to cook and they seem to sit well and they have an odd color but it enhances the flavor. I like the fact that I can use them in a soup or veggie bowl and can even stir fry them. I like the consistency/texture and they taste great. Good quality, versatile, if you let the temperature cool down a bit, you could even put them in a cold noodle bowl after rinsing with a little olive oil — excellent product. Best served with squash, the flavors seem to complement each other. Would buy again.

This package is much heavier than I expected. The noodles look slightly thicker form of spaghetti and they arrive wrapped in small packages that are just the right size for one person. Boil the water and drop in the noodles. Stir them around once or twice and use them however you want but I particularly enjoy the soba from Okinawa best of all, and much of their soba uses buckwheat noodles. but I make my own topping and I don’t use a ton of salt like the packages contain when you buy little packages of Ramen or other very cheap soba noodles.

Hey for the money boil rolling 5 min then ice water really good quality

I prefer buckwheat noodles because they have a fresh flavor and the texture is similar to what i get at a restaurant. These noodles are great hot and cold with some dashi or your favorite dipping sauce. While they cost more, they’re worth it in my opinion.

I searched for gluten-free buckwheat soba noodles and found these. When they arrived, I saw that they are 97% wheat! Very frustrating. Be advised if you are looking for a gluten-free buckwheat noodle, this is not the product for you!

Soba noodles come in various blends of buckwheat with regular wheat. This one seems to be in the sweat spot for our needs -- 100% buckwheat is sticky and messy, those with relatively little buckwheat are basically just thin spaghetti. These are nicely in between and work well at the bottom of a bowl of whatever you might stir fry up on a weeknight.

After 12 years in Japan, I've missed the comforting taste of authentic Soba noodles. Finding a package of uncooked Soba noodles on Amazon was a delightful surprise. Though not handmade, these noodles impressively capture the essence of traditional Soba. Cooking them brought back fond memories of Japan, and each bite offered a semblance of the authentic flavors I cherished. For those longing for a taste of Japan or simply seeking to enjoy a genuine Japanese dish at home, these Soba noodles do the job wonderfully, bridging the gap between convenience and authentic culinary experience.
