Ingredients
- 1 whole boneless mackerel
- 4.6 oz buckwheat noodles
- 2 stems green chives
- 2/3 paper cup tsuyu (4 fl oz)
- 2 paper cups anchovy-kelp broth (12 fl oz)
- Seasoning: 2 paper cups water (12 fl oz)
- Seasoning: 1/2 paper cup mirin (3 fl oz)
- Seasoning: 1/2 paper cup soy sauce (3 fl oz)
- Seasoning: 3 tablespoons sugar
Method
- Snip the green chives into fine pieces for the garnish.
- Bring the anchovy-kelp broth and tsuyu to a boil in a pot, then keep the soup warm.
- Combine the water, mirin, soy sauce and sugar in another pot; when the braising liquid boils, lay in the mackerel and simmer until it takes on the sweet soy glaze.
- Cook the buckwheat noodles in boiling water, rinse them under cold water, then dip them briefly in hot water to warm through.
- Arrange the noodles in bowls, set the braised mackerel on top, ladle the tsuyu broth over, and finish with the chopped chives.
