VEGETABLE YAKISOBA

Steps:

• In a small bowl, mix together the mirin, Ponzu sauce, oyster sauce, and Worcestershire sauce until thoroughly combined.
• Add 2 tablespoons of oil to the wok, along with the shiitake mushrooms. Stir-fry for 2 minutes and then add the onions, carrots, cabbage, and bell pepper.
• Stir-fry for another 2 minutes, and then add the noodles. Pour the sauce mixture over the noodles. The liquid will help break them up.
• Continue to stir-fry the mixture for another 2-3 minutes until the noodles are heated through. Add the scallions and stir-fry for 1 more minute. Serve, garnished with black sesame seeds if desired.

BEEF YAKISOBA

Steps:

• Cook the noodles al dente in a pot of boiling water-about 2 minutes for dried chuka soba noodles or 1 minute for fresh noodles. Drain in a colander and rinse with cool water to stop the cooking. Leave in a colander in the sink to drain while you continue with the recipe.
• In a bowl whisk together the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, chile paste, and sugar.
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the beef and cook, stirring frequently, until browned, 1 ½ to 4 minutes (this will depend on how thick the strips are.) transfer the meat to a plate or bowl.
• Add another tablespoon of oil to the skillet along with the onion and carrot. Cook, stirring, until beginning to soften, about 4 minutes.
• Add the mushrooms to the skillet, along with the remaining tablespoon of oil, if needed. Cook, stirring frequently, for another 2 to 3 minutes, until the mushrooms soften.
• Add the cabbage and green onions along with the browned beef and the noodles. Cook, stirring to mix well, for about 2 minutes until everything is warmed through and the cabbage is beginning to wilt.
• Add the sauce and cook, tossing to coat the noodles well with the sauce and mix everything together, for about 2 more minutes.
• Serve hot, garnished with sesame seeds, scallions, and/or pickled ginger, if desired.

VEGETARIAN YAKISOBA

Steps:

• Bring a medium pot of water to a boil.
• Cook the soba noodles in the boiling water for about 2 minutes or until they are al dente.(cooking any longer will cause the noodles to clump together.).
• Drain the noodles, rinse lightly with cold water and drain again. (This is important so the noodles won't stick.).
• Combine the soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, chili paste, sugar, and sesame oil in a small bowl and set aside.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
• When hot, add the onions, garlic, carrots, and cabbage. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until the vegetables begin to soften and brown slightly.
• Add the soba noodles and the soy sauce mixture and cook just long enough to reheat the noodles and thoroughly coat them in the sauce.
• Serve garnished with the chopped scallions and toasted sesame seeds.

• In your skillet or hot wok, add rehydrated beef strips and cook for a minute or two just to brown it a bit, then add your veggie mix, Yakisoba noodles, and sauce and mix well. Add black pepper and sesame oil to taste (I usually just try the cover the top with black pepper and maybe make a small circle with sesame oil. Stir until well mixed.
