Summer somen noodles

Light Somen noodles make a lovely cold salad

Just cook your somen as instructions and then let cold water run over them after draining adding a few ice cubes to make them nice and chilled .

I like to add a selection of salad with mine and maybe some cold silken tofu like in the photo .

make a light sauce to pour over

mix one tablespoon each of mirin,toasted sesame oil,brown rice vinegar and tamari in a small jar . Add also 1 teaspoon of yuzu juice . Put the lid on and give the jar a shake .

Pour over your somen and sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped green onion .
