Soba – A Delicious Japanese Superfood Soba (buckwheat noodles) is a traditional Japanese dish packed with high-quality protein, vitamins, minerals, dietary fiber, and rutin—a type of polyphenol. It’s a well-balanced superfood that’s as healthy as it is delicious. In this special experience, you’ll learn the traditional art of making soba from scratch—kneading, rolling, cutting, and cooking your own noodles under the guidance of a skilled instructor. Even first-timers can enjoy it with confidence. Freshly boiled soba can be enjoyed in many ways—served chilled zaru-style with a touch of salt or dashi for a refreshing taste, or as hot kake-soba in a light broth for a more delicate flavor. Making soba noodles is a rare and valuable experience that is hard to find even in Japan.
