My dream recipe is one that can be assembled in a flash–and delivers super tasty, visually interesting results. Do I ask for too much? This cold soba salad says no. The components, earthy buckwheat noodles, a citrusy soy dressing, and heap of fresh vegetables provide plenty of complex flavors and texture. The recipe is a family favorite for bento box lunches, picnics, and light summer dinners. Soba noodles, as you might know, are neatly wrapped in bundles. You’ll want 2 bundles (about 200 grams) for this recipe. Feel free to double the recipe, you’ll be happy to have leftovers. (Note: If you’re adding vegetables that need to be blanched, add them to the soba noodles during the last 1-2 minutes of cooking time.)
