I think what takes most time is how finely the ingredients have to be sliced 😛 love a cold soba noodle salad like this.

Tigerfish: Not really. Shredding the chicken is more time consuming than slicing the ingredients: Glad you like it. 🙂

I can imagine how good the soba tastes by looking at your recipe Well…it’s time to do some shopping at my favourite Japanese store. Just out of curiosity, what type of frying pan do you have in your photos? How many adult servings can you make with a packet of soba?

The kids enjoyed it too. The weather was so hot during the first wk of school, this dish was a nice cooling lunch.
I’m going to try the cauliflower recipe tomorrow. The kids prefer broccoli too, so hopping the recipe will change their minds heehee.
