Mitoku Sakurai Organic Jinenjo Soba 7 oz bag

Soba, Japanese buckwheat noodles are the traditional Japanese fast food, developed centuries ago as the perfect instant meal. They're light and digestible in summer, heartily warming in winter, and deliciously satisfying at any time of day. Like many of Japan's traditional foods, behind its image of utter simplicity, soba has been a tradition for centuries steeped in the lore of regional areas. Sakurai Noodle Company is located in Nagano, the heart of the land once known as Shinano, and recognized widely as the "home of soba."

Jinenjo (Japanese mountain yam) is a hardy root vegetable long prized in the Orient for its strengthening and rejuvenating qualities. Sakurai organic Jinenjo Soba is a flavorful and energizing pasta with a delightfully smooth texture. In Japan, jinenjo soba is most commonly enjoyed in hot shoyu-seasoned broth. It is also perfect for fried noodles or topped with your favorite sauce.
