How to Make Easy Handmade Soba Noodles

[@JoshuaWeissman]

Hey guys, quick note: please make sure to thoroughly dust your rolled noodle dough otherwise you could risk some sticky situations. You can dust with either all purpose flour, tapioca flour, or cornstarch. Much love, and thank you for the birthday wishes.

[@kinalbrien6357]

Hey I loved the video and will make some soba myself because of it, one minor advice concerning the video though, maybe cut the video so theres consistently a 1-2 second pause between segments. you tend to cut to quickly and thus you cut of your sentences sometimes, for example 4:18 you cut bonito fLAKE of.

[@ahwestvergina]

More videos? I need to see you make some chicken cordon bleu!

[@davidf2244]

Joshua the reason you mill your own flour is because your parents got you a Miller, and you love them

[@sammynatal6471]

You’re doing a great job dude. It’s great to see young men doing what we’ve always done.

[@phishlipsable]

as a farmer, if you've outdoor space, buckwheat will grow anytime during your main season (frost kills). it is EXTREMELY quick to germinate and establish, and it's ~30 days to bloom just a bit longer to seed. i grow it as a quick cover crop, so i want it killed while flowering but before the short window when it begins to seed; fallen seeds can act as a weed/competition in your garden. the bees LOVE it for forage. i personally think it smells like a sweet, flowery urine. cheers!

[@tanyabriggs8969]

Love me some buckwheat honey...and I love anything buckwheat flour...and it's a cover crop that brings soil nutrients from deep to top soil AND it is easy to till a stand of buckwheat by hand so no machinery needed. AND you can make microwave heating pads with the seeds you have NOT ground into flour. Just saying...buckwheat rocks!

[@phishlipsable]

@@tanyabriggs8969 exactly- no till it by weed eating it and letting it kill w visible surface residue! Plant into that residue for a mulch!

[@ronnymuh5289]

Mmmhm sweet flowery urine is exactly what my garden shall smell like this year😍

(vs arm candy 😉) I do enjoy your videos. Thank you for the time and effort you put into making them! And apparently it’s your birthday so Happy Birthday!

[@CherryBlossomHill]

Leaving the noodles to soak in cold water will make them soggy, in Japan it is served in a bowl placed over a bowl of ice in the summer so they are chilled bot not soggy. Major respect for milling your own flour, I would love to give that a try one day.

[@NomadeDigital]

Thanks for givings grams / ml conversions, It's always a pain to have to figure out what those cups mean !

"Soba is actually the Japanese word for buckwheat, uh, but don't quote me on that." - not Joshua Weissman Hardy harr, very original

In Japan, we normally use only water and we do it a little different in the kneading process

[@maetaylor5677]

Josh I would love to make this. Found this gem of a video. I actually really miss sometimes this style coming from the cabinet in your kitchen type video. Your new videos are missing something that was in these old videos. Obviously they are still fantastic and watch-worthy, but i donno somethings missing . You are truly a sensation now, literally everywhere almost daily on the internet I see your videos come up on my feed. I don't really watch them- . But I love that when I need to learn something really specific I can go back to these long form videos and attain depths of information. Your passion and dedication to the craft is truly infectious. cant wait to try this. But hell no I wont be milling my own flour.

[@sapodillaice]

Hoooooly I’m from typical soba region, very first time to watch someone prepare cold soba properly on KZbin! I don’t fucking care the name origin but the word soba means “side” in Japanese just you know! We also have 100% buckwheat soba, you can also serve with tempura, and happy birthday!

[@AnnieTaylorChen]

I just did the experiment today with the recipe, with my Ankarsrum bread machine and the hand hold pasta machine (like in the video). However, the result was that my noodles breaks after boiling, despite I made them wider instead of the thin version. Thinking back I think it could be due to: 1. I didn't use the hook to knead the dough and perhaps the default one is not strong enough for drier dough as such so it wasn't properly kneaded 2. I probably need to add more flour (I used bread flour and not all purpose flour) and not just follow the recipe's. The whole process turned to be a bit messy though so perhaps it's best that I try to knead by hand if I try again. We put two batches in the fridge to eat tmr and freeze one batch. We can see how that goes. Before when I made fresh paste, I would hang them to dry with paste hanger if I don't eat them immediately.

[@patriciamacabulos6905]

I itch to hear Joshua Weissman say 'Mise En Place' in one of his videos. At least once.

[@lrrjuventus1143]

Hey Joshua, just came across your channel. I love it and already subscribed. Quick question: if I follow above directions, I am obviously making a few portions of noodles. What do you suggest is the best way to keep the extra portions fresh for the next few days...should a cook them all immediately? Or similarly to fresh pasta, they can stay uncooked in the refrigerator for about 2-3 days? Thanks!

Yes! Edit 1: Just a side question what do you think of the pasta roller attachments for stand mixers vs. Hand crank variants like the one in the video? Edit 2: Nooooo! Don't spit on the camera!

[@aksun1130]

ShadowVipers hi! I got the pasta attachments for my kitchen aid stand mixer and the only part I want to keep from the set is the sheeting attachment, both cutting attachments (spaghetti and fettuccine) cut way to thin even when I sheeted the dough thicker, the texture was just way off. The hand crank that I also have seems to do a better job cutting the pastas. Hope this helps you!

[@ShadowVipers]

@@aksun1130 cool thanks for the feedback!

[@JoshuaWeissman]

I think the pasta roller attachments are dope! They're just more expensive. :)

[@ShadowVipers]

@@JoshuaWeissman do you have a preference?

[@TheSimplyCooking]

I have the kitchen aid pasta roller for eight years now and I like them a lot and use them a ton. Especially because you can work faster than with a hand roller. Recently I bought the Philips pasta maker and it’s also pretty dope, it’s faster and you can make more shapes (especially since I buy bronze stencils from Italy). They are different, but I’m happy to own both because there are pretty severe food allergies in my family and i have to make everything by hand.

[@AmandaWoolsey]

Oddly enough I have a Mockmill mill, buckwheat groats and a Phillips noodle maker, but no clue what a few of the sauce ingredients even were lol

@Joshua Weissman. First.. nice! Gonna try myself! Informative video as always. (Yes a little later, meh). Second, have you or will you do rice noodles?

[@Toschez]

Yes, soba in Japanese is buckwheat plant as well as buckwheat noodle.

[@rpm427sc]

Do your fingers see in 10 dimensions? I hear that is a pre-requisite for making Soba noodles.

[@waderoberge6398]

Video quality is crazy good

[@keeps8500]

Is putting the noodles in cold water after you rinse them a necessary step?? I’m making them right now and I want to eat them warm, I was just wondering if I need to put them in cold water and heat them up after, or if I can just plate it straightaway. Also, they look great, thanks for such a fire video!! & happy late birthday!!

[@katvos]

I'm curious as to why the need for all purpose flour, as traditional soba noodles just use buckwheat flour. Something about your process is creating a noodle that looks much different in texture. That being said, kudos for the homemade tsuyu, and happy birthday! Your videos are beautiful!

[@tomaskalinka5679]

I think it´s because 100% soba are more difficult to make properly without tearing the dough in the process...so adding little bit of gluten (in normal flour) makes it easier to make :) but then it is not gluten-free...

[@AradhyaOnBass]

OOF THIS IS SO SWEET.

[@browngirlgreenlife4702]

This was awesome! I will definitely be trying this out soon. What other grains do you use in your flour mill?

[@noda8463]

You can use anything pretty much corn, wheat, rye etc.

[@han5234]

I'm not able to get hold of all purpose flour due to stock shortages. Is it possible to make these with just the buckwheat flour? I also have some cornflour if that would help at all.

[@AgentLane13]

Han Louise late response but - unless you're willing/able to do some very tricky work, using only buckwheat flour would be nigh impossible. The all-purpose flour (or wheat flour generally) makes the soba easier to make by adding gluten. Without that added component it's very hard to get the noodles to form correctly, and usually requires a lot of expertise.
