Noodle Preparation
Bring about 8 cups of water to a boil in a large pot for every 90–100g serving.
1
Add the noodles, gently separating them as they go in. Stir occasionally and boil for 1.5 – 2 minutes. If foam rises and the pot threatens to boil over, add a small amount of water.
2
When the noodles turn pale and slightly translucent, drain in a colander. Rinse thoroughly under cold water to remove any starch, then drain well.
3
Serve chilled with dipping sauce, water, or ice. Add condiments such as ginger, nori, or green onion for extra flavor.
