Buckwheat Soba Noodle Soup

My wife likes 100% buckwheat soba noodle. Most of the buckwheat noodles are made from mixture of buckwheat and flour. (It's okay too) Some people prefer them instead. 

You need dried kelp and bonito flakes to make Japanese soup broth.

And you also need soy sauce and mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)

Boil dried kelp and bonito flakes in the plenty of water for about 20 minutes.

Add soy sauce and mirin. You can add little bit of sugar if you like more flavor in the soup.

(the white balls are vegetable fish balls)

Bring plenty water to a boil and add soba noodle. (see the cooking time on the package)

Drain and rinse well

You can add any vegetable you like.
