A season for soba noodles

A season for soba noodles, Japanese noodles, is coming.

"Soba noodles are native Japanese noodles made of buckwheat flour (soba-ko) and wheat flour (komugi-ko). They are roughly as thick as spaghetti, and prepared in various hot and cold dishes. The most basic soba dish is zaru soba in which boiled, cold soba noodles are eaten with a soya based dipping sauce (tsuyu)." From http://www.japan-guide.com/e/e2341.html
