Soba Classic brings the clean, nutty flavor and firm, slightly chewy texture of traditional Japanese soba noodles to everyday meals. Soba noodles are made from buckwheat flour and are prized for their distinctive earthy taste and delicate gray-brown color; many commercial soba products are pure buckwheat or blended with a small amount of wheat for elasticity, so check the package for specific ingredients and allergen information. Soba Classic is versatile and cooks quickly, making it equally suited to chilled preparations such as zaru soba with a soy‑based dipping sauce, or to hot bowls served in a savory broth with toppings like scallions, seaweed, tempura, or grated daikon. Buckwheat is naturally rich in plant-based protein, fiber, and minerals, offering a nutritious alternative to many wheat-only pastas, while the dried noodles store easily in a cool, dry place until opened.

To use Soba Classic, bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil and add the noodles, stirring gently to separate them; dried soba typically cooks in about 3–5 minutes (fresh soba will cook faster), and should be tested for al dente doneness to avoid overcooking. For cold preparations, drain and rinse the cooked noodles thoroughly under cold water, then chill in ice water if desired to firm the texture before serving with dipping sauce. For hot soups, drain the noodles and add them directly to a simmering broth for a minute or two until heated through. After opening, store unused noodles in an airtight container in a cool, dry place and follow the package guidance for best-by dates and allergen information.
