Somen Noodles with Cucumber and Pork
My son didn't like eating meat coated with katakuriko, so I prepared it without the coating and it was well received.
Usually if you cook meat in microwave, you need some katakuriko, but you don't have to use it here. Cook the pork first, take it out to season with soy sauce and then return to the microwave again Without this procedure, the soy sauce flavour would be thinned, and the pork will toughened.

Garnish with the shiso leaves and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds. Pour over the ● sauce.

On hot days chill Step 6 and ● before serving.

I put the seasoned meat on top, so the soup itself is diluted. Stock homemade mentsuyu (dashi stock, soy sauce, and mirin in a 4:1:1 ratio) in advance. If this is too strong, thin with water to your liking.
- 11
If serving the sauce with udon noodles, double the quantity of the ● soy sauce and mirin or else it may be too thin.
