Thanks the info I read said some are made with regular flour also. I ll have to be careful when buying or eating. I had them years ago before I knew I was Intolerant . I loved them .
Thank you for your time ,

Es impresionante tu post @HiroyukiTakisawa, quede con muchas ganas de probar ese tipo de fideo Soba 🍜, el detalle y la combinación precisa con las Fotos hacen dar más ganas de pedir al delivery nos traiga la comida a casa, gracias por compartir estos detalles de la cocina Japonesa.
saludos Farid.

You are welcome @FaridTDF
If you want, I can send Soba to you. In Japan, people eat Soba on new year's day, so you can fit it. Or, you can also wait for the next time we meet 😉

Jajaja las dos opciones son muy tentadoras estoy seguro que nos volveremos a ver @HiroyukiTakisawa

I introduce a Soba restaurant in my region.
Wagaya
in Nishiwaga, Iwate Japan
Of course, we can eat an awesome new Soba at this restaurant.
Flavor, taste, and environment are so nice. You can enjoy tastily soba in the traditional Japanese house style restaurant.
When I visited there, a staff recommended me to eat Soba with water. And the next with salt. These were so interesting experience. You should try it as well:-)

Really amazing post, thank you for sharing more about soba with us!
Soba is my favourite type of Japanese noodles. When I was living in Japan, I enjoyed both hot and cold soba, depending on the season. The most delicious combination for me was with onion and ebi tempura. So tasty!
Does "new soba" mean that around this time of the year buckwheat is harvested in Japan?

Hi, @DeniGu
Yes, you are almost correct.
In general, buckwheat(Soba) is harvested from September to October, and it changes to buckwheat flour. So most customers are able to eat Soba that made from the new buckwheat flour from around middle October:-)
In fact, the harvesting seasons of Soba are Spring and Autumn. However maybe most of the Japanese people like Autumn Soba more than Spring Soba.
Onion and Ebi tempura Soba sounds really good! From the winter, a hot Soba also great .... :-)))
