I have Soba noodles sitting around, a lot of them. Unfortunately, I had to throw away my Soba noodle base when I moved - and now I can't find any in stores! So, /food/, give me your favourite Soba noodle recipes.

Soba (蕎麦) is a thin Japanese buckwheat noodle, usually cooked and served with various toppings and condiments. The standard form is kake soba, "soba in broth". Kake soba consists of cooked soba noodles in a bowl of hot broth made of dashi, mirin, and shoyu (Japanese soy sauce) and topped with sliced green onions.

>>1 should read that article, it covers pretty much what he's asking. Dashi is very easy to make and tastes a lot better then powdered base/bouillon. It's also great to cook vegetables in. Go for it!

Personally I like zarusoba (described in the article.) The special tray isn't really necessary... just chill the noodles and make the dipping sauce from some leftover broth.
