10-Year Udon has been touted on Japanese TV shows as the "soul food" of Fukushima Prefecture by Hiromitsu Nozaki, the head chief of a famous Tokyo restaurant, Wake Tokuyama.
It's said that eating this can extend your life by 10 years!

In order to have a smooth soup stock, be sure to thoroughly grind the sesame in Step 1. Adding too much sake and flavoring in Step 2 will make the stock too salty and ruin the flavor. Recipe by Kitchen sakamoto

Ingredients

  1. 300 gramsUdon noodles (dried)
  2. 50 gramsEgoma seeds
  3. 1 tbspMiso
  4. 50 mlSake
  5. 50 mlUsukuchi soy sauce
  6. 150 mlDashi stock
  7. 1Cucumber (cut into slices)
  8. 1Ginger
  9. 1Shiso leaves

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Add the egoma to a frying pan and dry-fry on low-medium heat. It'll take 2-3 minutes, and the sesame will become aromatic while making a popping sound.

  2. 2

    Next up is grinding the egoma seeds. Prepare your dish, flavorings, and a wide space to work in.

  3. 3

    Start off by grinding vigorously. Once you've ground 70-80% of the seeds, then add the flavoring.

  4. 4

    Add the miso, soy sauce, and sake, and grind until smooth.

  5. 5

    Add the dashi in parts to flavor the mixture. I used special kombu dashi.

  6. 6

    Hang in there and keep grinding. Add the dashi while checking the salty flavor. If you don't mind sesame granules then you're finished here.

  7. 7

    When you're close to finishing the cold sesame sauce boil the udon. If you're working by yourself then boil the udon while the sauce is chilling.

  8. 8

    Drain the boiled udon all at once and cool the noodles. Use both hands to rinse the noodles, rubbing them gently. It's easiest if you have a large bowl and strainer.

  9. 9

    Place the noodles in a sieve and the sauce in a glass bowl. Serve with your desired condiments (cucumber, ginger, shiso, etc) for a bit of color.
