This was a fantastic dish. I made it almost exactly as written except that I used chicken as suggested in the description. Also, my Soba Noodle directions said to boil for only 4 - 5 minutes so I boiled them for 4. This recipe was two of my favorite things - easy and delicious!

    Very easy to make, and turned out delicious! We used only half the cabbage, but will be sure to use more next time as it really just shrunk away. I added a tbsp of sesame oi for flavour and it turned out great. Thanks!

    great recipe SueL! I used dried soba (buckwheat noodles) and it had a wonderful flavor. I think it would be wonderful with udon too. I used only 2 tsp of sugar, and it's perfect for BF and I. I think I added more than 1 TB of ginger as I love ginger. I also added a few cloves of minced garlic. Yummy! Thanks for the recipe.

    Very nice recipe! I really enjoyed the flavor and theease of making this. Made a great lunch. I made 2 slight changes, reduced the amount of sugar a little and added shitake mushrooms. Have to recommend! Thanks for sharing the recipe.
