~ - recipe courtesy of Hiroyuki Sato (71461.2100@...) NOTES : This is an imitation of hiyashi chuuka soba, a favorite summertime dish. [despite its name, actually made with ramen noodles, not soba -- Ed.] The only difference from the genuine hiyashi is the use of spaghetti noodles instead of ramen noodles. You will be surprised that you won't taste that much of difference at all if you have tasted real hiyashi before.
