Crispy Salmon with Stir Fried Soba Noodles Recipe

Unlike pasta, dried soba noodles do not require salt to be added into the water when boiling it. Depending on the thickness of the soba noodles, it generally takes about 6-8 minutes of vigorous boiling (check packet instructions) to achieve that in-between al-dente and soft texture. When you take the noodles out from the pot, plunge them into cold water immediately and give them a good wash (like hand-washing clothes) to remove the excess starch and salty flavour. Once done, you can serve them cold with a dipping sauce, make into a soba salad or stir fry as a hot noodle dish like this Crispy Salmon with Stir Fried Soba Noodles Recipe. I choose hard vegetables for their crunch and you can of course substitute them with your preferred ones like broccoli, cauliflower, french beans, edamame, etc. For a healthier alternative, try this Oven-Baked Salmon with Soba Noodles Recipe. Bon appetit!
