I try different toppings and sauces for chilled noodles as we often eat them in summer and we don't want to be tired of them! Sometimes we prefer them to our usual Chinese-style chilled noodles. With plenty of lime and lemon juice, you can get a lot of vitamin C and you can get through a hot summer.Sourness and sweetness vary according to the different makes of chilli sauce. Adjust the amount of honey and vinegar. If you are not so keen on coriander leaves, use mitsuba instead. I like its fragrance and flavour. Serve with toasted sesame seeds and ra-yu, if you like.

It’s so yummy 😋It’s like a Ramen but cold version. This time we used thin Udon noodle. It’s a savory dish.

I love cold noodles with sesame sauce, but the dish can be bit heavy when I'm losing my appetite due to the hot weather. I wanted to make a refreshing dish with a sauce on the lighter side that I could enjoy until the last bite.Add ra-yu (chili oil) at the end if you like. Recipe by caramel-cookie

Vegetarians want to eat dan dan noodles too. Since that's impossible if you're dining out, I made it myself.Use whatever kinds of noodles you like. The leafy green vegetable shown in the picture is kale. If you're going to add sesame oil, I think just a very small amount is fine. If you don't have soy milk, you can substitute peanut butter dissolved in hot water. If you only have the chunky type, it might be best to use a blender to smooth it out. For 1 serving.

I've had this udon dish a lot at my friend's house. I used to like salad udon, but this style of refreshing cold udon dish is delicious too! This is my own adaptation.Make sure to firm up the noodles in cold water, and to chill the sauce well before serving.I sometimes add a soft poached egg, grated daikon radish, or okra as toppings.If it's not a bother, marinate the cut up aburaage (fried tofu) in a little bit of the sauce beforehand - it will be even more delicious. For 1 serving. Recipe by Wanko mama

I came up with this seasoning mixture since I didn't have okonomiyaki sauce or kimchi sauce.Miso sauce is also great for stir-fried vegetables! Recipe by monmoso

I love Korean Chilled Noodles at Korean barbecue restaurants, but I don't like the soup that comes with store-bought Korean chilled noodles. I can't buy only the noodles at my near-by supermarket, and it's too expensive to buy the whole set because I don't use the soup. So when I can't buy only the noodles, I make this Korean-style dish with Chinese noodles or somen noodles.If you don't have the kimchi base, you can substitute with the juice from Chinese cabbage kimchi (2-3 tablespoons). If you have mul kimchi, it will be very delicious if you use the juice from it. Combine the juice with 300 ml water, add vinegar, sugar, beef soup stock granules, and adjust the taste accordingly.

I wanted to eat somen noodles with lots of vegetables, and came up with this recipe.If you add a little sesame oil to the cooked somen noodles and mix it in, it will prevent them from sticking together and be easier to eat.Cut the vegetables to the same length to make them easier to eat and prettier too.Use mentsuyu sauce or soy sauce, whichever you prefer.Use whatever vegetables you like, as well as imitation crab sticks or other ingredients!! For about 1 serving. Recipe by Mahojo

The weather is beginning to get warmer, so I wanted to make lightly salty chilled Chinese noodles.Feel free to adjust the amount of salt. I served this to my child, so I reduced the quantity of salt to 1/2 teaspoon.If you add 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, the sauce will be more round and you'll be able to even drink up the soup. If you like your soup tart, then add plenty. Recipe by John Lee Cooker

This sauce is easy on your stomach.They use pork bones and chicken bones to make sauce in restaurants, but this one doesn't.You don't need to add Chinese chicken soup stock for this sauce, the minced pork gives a good flavour instead. Serve with plenty of vegetables that you like such as thinly sliced Japanese leeks, tomatoes and daikon radish sprouts to give it a nice balance! Recipe by pogue

I won a contest to become a tester for a brand of mentsuyu, so I tried making this. There's soy milk miso soup, so I thought that soy milk soba dipping sauce should work too - and it was delicious! I thought I'd try milk first, but that has a character that doesn't really go well with this. I think that soy milk just goes better with Japanese ingredients. I don't have special bamboo plates for cold soba, so I just used a sushi rolling mat under the soba noodles and used tea cups as dipping cups... I apologize for the makeshift arrangement.Make with soy milk and not milk! Recipe by ochikeron

I made a dish from my husband's favorite restaurant at home.Try chilling the noodles in an ice bath before plating it. They'll be cold and delicious. My husband can finish 2 servings by himself! Recipe by Okirakushufu
