Nakayama Soba, a dish passed down through generations in the Nakayama district.
Made with buckwheat flour that’s rich in umami—a result of the region’s climate with its significant temperature fluctuations—and using Odate’s specialty mountain yam as a binding agent, this soba boasts a unique texture.
The distinctive flavor, texture, and smoothness of Nakayama Soba are sure to impress even the most discerning connoisseurs. Local mothers will cheerfully and patiently teach you how to make soba.
The taste of soba you make yourself is truly exceptional. Why not spend a warm and welcoming time with the local farmers’ wives over a meal of soba you’ve made yourselves?
