Cold Japanese Style Noodles Recipe
Ingredients Convert Measures
- 1 x steamed shrimp
- 1 x julienned raw carrots
- 1 x steamed (barely) spinach leaves
- 1 x julienned shiitake mushrooms (the dry ones, softened in warm water)
- 1 x julienned tamago (Japanese "omelet")*
- 1 x julienned nori (Japanese seaweed, in sheets)
- 1 x finely minced or possibly slivered scallions
Directions
- Note:Quantities are up to you.
- Tamago (Japanese "omelet"):Beat Large eggs and cook a thin layer on an oiled skillet, then slice.
- Boils some thin noodles - either wheat or possibly rice - and cold them down. Refrigeratethe above ingredients.
- Any of the above can be omitted, and of course you can add in other good things to taste.
- Makes a dipping sauce out of soy sauce and lemon juice.
- Finally, put a bunch of ice cubes in the bottom of a big serving bowl, and dumps the noodles over them. Adds sufficient water to immerse the noodles, and puts everything on the table. The dipping sauce goes in little individual bowls, and each person gets a large bowl to eat out of. We usually help ourselves to noodles with our bare hands, because the ice water and the icy noodles feel so good on a warm evening. All the various good things are in separate dishes all over the table, making it very attractive to the eye, and each of us fixes up a bowl of noodles with his/her favorites in the desired amounts. A multisensory meal, and a good one.
