Swaps that keep this dish what it is. The prices on this page are for the recipe as written.
Gluten-free
- 270 g Gluten-free soba noodles instead of soba noodles
- 30 ml Tamari instead of soy sauce
Cook the gluten-free soba to the packet time and rinse well in cold water, as it can be more fragile; the dressing is made the same way with tamari.
