The secret ingredient that is required is… drum roll ……

Kamu Japanese Soba Noodles!

There are so many things you can make with it and I want to see all the creative uses in noodling our neighbors try!

I am so excited to see what everyone makes!!

 

 

I made a example dish called Tomato Mozzarella Soba Pesto Caprese to step out of your comfort zone-

and this dish is all about it – and that’s what award winning competition home cooks do.
