My family has always eaten somen noodles in this way ever since I was little. My father always made it this way for some reason.

Enjoy the combination of chilled noodles and warm broth! I used 2x concentrate mentsuyu sauce. Please adjust the sauce depending on how concentrated the mentsuyu sauce you're using is. Add your favorite condiments! Recipe by Taunbi-
