ingredients:

step 1:

Pour the water into a pan. Bring to a boil and add the dried kishimen (udon). Follow the cooking instructions on the bag (it is usually best to boil for 3 minutes on high heat and 9 minutes on medium heat.)

step 2:

After boiling, drain the noodles in a colander and quickly run cold water over them.

step 3:

Because too much starch and salt on the noodles can make them taste slimy, wash them under cold running water to remove any extra starch.

step 4:

Drain again. After cooking, 7 ounces dried thick noodles becomes about 19 ounces cooked noodles.
