Cold Salad-Style Udon Noodles with Tomatoes and Shiso Leaves

I was introduced to these delicious udon noodles that I can microwave instead of boiling, so I made a delicious and refreshing dish that is easy to make even on a hot summer day.
The fried onions are a must. Please be sure to use them. They add rich flavor and a crunchy texture, and give regular udon noodles a twist.
It's just regular udon noodles if you don't add fried onions.
Pour in the mentsuyu as is, even if it is a concentrated type.
This dish will be even more delicious if you cool it with ice water. Recipe by Nanaiku
