Preparation
- Step 1
Combine 4 cups water, dashi, soy sauce, mirin, sake and sugar in bowl. Whisk until dashi and sugar dissolve; set aside.
- Step 2
Bring 4 quarts water to boil in large saucepan. Add soba noodles, and cook until tender, about 6 minutes. Drain noodles in colander, rinse with cold water until cool, and drain again.
- Step 3
Combine wasabi powder and 1 tablespoon water in a small bowl, and stir. Let stand about 6 minutes, until it becomes a thick paste. Using your finger, form 4 small balls.
- Step 4
To serve, divide noodles among 4 bowls, and ladle broth over them. Arrange wasabi balls, scallion greens, nori and dried bonito flakes (if using) on top of noodles. Using chopsticks, dissolve wasabi balls into broth; do not eat whole. Serve at once.
