Last week we gave away a little secret – that cooking Japanese food doesn’t have to be tricky. In fact, with our starter food kits it can be as simple as ichi, ni, san. Now find out how to rustle up more easy classics with your tomodachi’s at Japan Centre…
Soba
You don’t have to eat soba like this enthusiastic lass to enjoy it, although, why wouldn’t you? In the family of noodles soba is the good-natured, wholesome uncle. Made from healthy buckwheat, it’s easy to prepare with a distinctive texture and flavour.

Soba is super versatile and delicious hot or cold. Slurp your way through our soba recipes at Japan Centre.
Miso Soup
Miso soup is sipped, slurped and guzzled throughout Japan. It’s especially popular in the mornings and is known for its health benefits, including high amino acid and omega content (don’t worry, those are good things) . Wanna know a secret? It’s stupendously easy to prepare. We think even a fish could do it.
