Grilled asparagus in dashi broth recipe

This week, we bring you a largely familiar dish with an oriental twist. This is a dish made with delicious green asparagus, a type of asparagus that was introduced to Japan by the Dutch in the 18th century and was initially cultivated as an ornamental plant. However, the benefits of this foodstuff in the diet soon became apparent, and its use in cooking became increasingly popular. The asparagine they contain is transformed into an amino acid when digested, which promotes a healthy metabolism, providing energy for the body and keeping the skin healthy. Read more

Soba noodles

The great popularity of Japanese culture in our country has meant that in recent years many of the dishes and ingredients of its traditional cuisine are no longer so unfamiliar. Sushi, for example, is one of them, but there are also others with which we are becoming familiar, such as “Soba”.

The word Soba (蕎麦) is used to distinguish buckwheat, but it is also used to refer to the long thin noodles made with buckwheat flour. But this week, at Oriental Market we are going a little further, to talk to you NOT about noodles, but about noodles! The proportion of buckwheat flour may vary depending on the manufacturer, but it is almost always combined with a small part of common wheat flour. They have a characteristic brown colour and a flat profile. Do you want to know our “Soba” noodles? Take a look, take a look! Read more
