Sauce

  • 3/4 cup scallions finely chopped

  • 2 teaspoons chili oil (will add heat, use less or serve on side for picky eaters)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • salt to taste I don’t add because I think the soy sauce is enough
  • pinch black pepper

Instructions

  • Boil the soba noodles as per the instruction on the package, If you need them cold drain well with the cold water once they are cooked or just drain the water in which they boiled if you like them hot.
