Somen noodles with colorful vegetables

55

The update is a little late, and we are now updating the dishes and dining table for star festival.

Tanabata is a Japanese calendar that originated in China, but it is said that it is a culture unique to Japan that started eating somen noodles as an event food on the day of star festival.
It is said that thin white noodles are reminiscent of Orihime’s weaving thread or the Milky Way.

It should be noted that in Japan, somen noodles are favored as a meal to be eaten in the hot summer season, rather than to be eaten on the star festival day.
This is because cold noodles can be eaten deliciously without an appetite.

Thinking about the Milky Way floating in the night sky…
How about somen noodles to get rid of heat?
