Specialty of Kahoku, Yamagata! You can order cool Nikusoba (buckwheat noodles with meat toppings)!?

Kahoku-cho, located just around the center of Yamagata, is known for producing cherries and safflowers. Did you know the town offers a local food called “Tsumetai Nikusoba (cold buckwheat noodles with meat toppings)”?

Best combination of chicken soup and Inaka-soba (noodles that are darker in color and thicker than Sarashina soba)

Actually, “Tsumetai Niku-soba,” with a history of more than 80 years, was originally an off-menu item of local soba shop. They say it was originated by a customer who poured stewed horse meat--a relish--on cold soba noodles.

Currently, chicken meat is used for “Tsumetai Niku-soba.” The dish is characterized by Inaka-soba in a refreshingly cool soy sauce-flavored chicken broth and chicken meat toppings. The combination of rich broth with thick, chewy Inaka-soba offering strong taste of buckwheat is catchy. The meat toppings have rubbery texture peculiar to chicken; they are simple yet filling, and your chopsticks won’t stop easily.

Extremely popular even during cold seasons!

In Kahoku-cho, this “Tsumetai Niku-soba” is popular not only during summer but also in cold seasons. It is also recommended to enjoy with sake; they say the common style is to savor sake with meat toppings and finish with soba and the broth. It’s fine to enjoy in such way, since the broth is cold and the noodles won’t get soft. Kahoku-cho’s unique specialty “Tsumetai Niku-soba” may be ordered online. Strongly recommended to soba-lovers! Do taste the local taste at your home.

“Kahoku Tsumetai Niku-soba Set 5 portions”(2,700 yen (tax included) / soba-noodles, Tsumetai Niku-soba broth, toppings / each 5 portions)
The set which is delivered in freezer van is popular, since you can casually enjoy “Tsumetai Niku-soba.”

“Refrigerated Kahoku Tsumetai Niku-soba 2 portions” (1,080 yen (tax included) / dried soba-noodles (200 g) x 1, Tsumetai Niku-soba broth × 2, chicken char siu × 2)
The set which can be refrigerated is recommended if you want to try in small portions.
