COLD THIN NOODLES IN CHILLED WATER (HIYASHI SōMEN)
Somen (or sōmen) is a very thin noodles served cold which makes it a perfect summer dish. Noodles are served in chilled water and the dipping sauce is also chilled. It is a very simple dish but wonderful to pop in between heavy meals to give your stomach a little bit of a rest.If you use dashi stock made from konbu (kelp), the dish will become a vegetarian dish.

Steps:
- Add all the Dipping Sauce ingredients to a small saucepan and bring it to a boil.
- Remove from the heat and cool it down quickly by leaving the pan in the cold water for a while, then place it in the fridge to chill.
- Boil water in a large saucepan. Remove the tape around each bunch of sōmen noodles and place the noodles in the boiling water by spreading the strands.
- Using chopsticks or a thin wooden spatula, stir the pot so that noodles are separated.
- Boil for about 2 minutes (note 3). Drain using a sieve and rinse well.
- Place noodles in a serving bowl, add chilled water (or water + ice cubes), just enough to cover the noodles.
- Using chopsticks or tongs with soft edges, take a small number of noodles at a time and gently lay them in the same direction so that the noodles line up nicely (optional).
- Decorate the noodle bowl with leaves or cucumber slices, if using. Serve with dipping sauce and condiments.
HIYASHI SOMEN - COLD NOODLES WITH DIPPING SAUCE MARK BITTMAN
Simple, quick and cold. This seems like the perfect hot summer lunch or light dinner! This is so easy to "jazz up" with toppings on the side. Poached and chilled shrimp, cilantro, thinly sliced cucumbers, ginger; just serve on the side and let guests add what they like! From Mark Bittman's The Best Recipes in the World. Mark's note: If you want to significantly speed up an already fast dish, skip the dried shrimp and sugar.

Steps:
- Combine the dashi with the soy sauce, mirin, sugar, and dried shrimp if you're using them in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring, just until the sugar is dissolved, then strain the dipping sauce into another container sitting on a bowl of ice to cool (you want it to be between ice cold and room temperature).
- Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add salt. Drop in the somen and cook for 2 to 4 minutes, until tender, then rinse them in a colander under cold running water.
- Serve each guest a small bowl of noodles, twisted into a little nest on top of a couple of ice cubes, and a small bowl with 1/2 cup of the dipping sauce scattered with the minced scallion on the side. Pass a little dish of wasabi, if desired, stir into the dipping sauce.
CHILLED SOMEN NOODLES (HIYASHI SOMEN)
Somen are very fine Japanese wheat noodles, finer than vermicelli. Look for them in the Asian section of your grocery or at an Asian market. This makes a refreshing lunch or light supper on a hot summer day. You can add cooked, deveined, peeled shrimp if you wish (cut larger shrimp in half). Other suggestion include dried shiitake simmered in equal parts soy sauce and mirin (Japanese sweet rice cooking wine), and watercress or trefoil (a Japanese green somewhat similar to watercress). The dipping sauce is best if made the day before, but it is still good if made the same day. This recipe comes from Shizuo Tsuji's 'Japanese Cooking: A Simple Art', which I highly recommend to anyone interested in traditional Japanese cooking.

Steps:
- Make dipping sauce by combining the dashi (or dashi granules and 1 cup water), mirin, and soy sauce in a medium saucepan. Bring just to a boil, reduce heat, and simmer for 5 minutes.
- Force-cool the sauce by pouring into a medium-size metal mixing bowl, placing into a large bowl of ice cubes and water, and twirling, taking care not to spill, until cooled. (Note: this is an important step; it won't taste right if you just let it cool slowly!)When cooled, refrigerate until ready to use.
- Cook noodles according to package directions. Drain, rinse well under cold water, drain again, and place in a bowl of cold water.
- To serve, place a mound of noodles into individual glass bowls, tuck in a few ice cubes and pour in a small amount of water (not enough to cover; just to dampen). Sprinkle with cilantro leaves to taste.
- On little individual plates, place a small mound of sliced green onion and a dab of wasabi. Pour some dipping sauce into small individual bowls.
- Each person can season his or her sauce to taste with the onions and wasabi, then pick up a bunch of noodles (chopsticks really work the best, but you can use a fork, too), allow water to drip back into bowl, dip into sauce, and eat.
- For a somewhat heartier meal, add some of the suggested additions (in the description above) along with the cilantro leaves when serving. I like to serve this with a simple salad of tomato wedges, sliced cucumber, and either lettuce or Napa cabbage with a Japanese-style dressing.
