Hakubaku - Cha Soba Noodles - 200g

always a favorite, came unblemished and perfect. thank you

Following the cooking instructions on the package, the noodles cooked perfectly. The package also has the recipe for the dipping sauce. I plan on buying several packages more. The price is a little bit high and the shipping is extremely high for a 7-ounce package (at the time of this writing the 7-ounce package of noodles cost $3.69 and the shipping was $5.25). I only hope that the shipper does not charge an individual shipping cost for each package. I will be e-mailing the seller this question before I place my next order. The cash involved is the only reason why I did not give these noodles a 5-star rating. UPDATE: I contacted the seller. The shipping price goes up as the quantity increases. It was not stated by how much per package.

In Japan, soba must be at least 30% buckwheat flour in order to be called soba. According to the label, these noodles have only 1% buckwheat flour, which explains why that distinctive soba taste is absent. Don’t waste your money.
