History of Soba
The long history of soba cultivation is said to trace as far back as the mid-fifth century. However,the spread of soba as it is known in the present day began in the middle of the Edo period. After soba appeared in Edo food stalls as a trendy new dish, it quickly gained popularity with the Edokko, or people who lived in Edo. Edo was known for soba; the Osaka and Kyoto area was known for udon. Most likely, soba was a good match for the spirited temperament of the Edokko. Also,during the Edo period, beriberi was common among the people living in the city due to their high consumption of high nutrition. Eating soba was encouraged after it was found that the disease could be prevented by consuming mineral-rich soba noodles. Tempura-soba, also a product of the period, was said to be invented when someone added some added some tempura from a next-door vendor to their kakesoba and found it to be quite delicious. The dish quickly spread throughout the city.
What is the Soba?
Soba is a noodle made from the grains of the buckwheat plant. Soba noodles, also known as sobakiri,are divided into several types depending on the amount of soba flour used, such as juuwari(100% soba), or ni-hachi(two parts wheat to eight parts soba). Soba flour can further be categorized as sarashina soba(made with refined buckwheat) and inaka soba(made with whole buckwheat), among other types. The varieties of broth served with the noodles vary depending on the shop or type of soba used: thin soups, strong soups, spicy or sweet flavors. The most common way of eating soba is zarusoba, or chilled soba, served with a dipping sauce and seaweed sprinkled on top. Warm broth poured over soba noodles is also common.
