This is a dish that will only appear on a school lunch menu. That is to say, for japanese, the memory of this dish fades with age.
I am not a udon person, I am a ramen worshipper. Being an edo-ite, I also lack total empathy for people who like fat squishy noodles in clear broth.
So I conclude, the only way you will ever find me eating udon noodles is when it is totally soak in curry sauce! That’s how I got the urge to cook them for dinner today.
Onions, carrots, chicken, curry paste, water and green onions.
I still can’t get over the texture of the udon noodles, but at least the curry was great!
