  • 8oz dry soba noodles
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Directions
  1. Prep all herbs, cucumber and scallions so they will be ready when your noodles have finished cooking.
  2. Boil water in a medium sized pot. Meanwhile, add vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, grapeseed oil, sugar and salt in a wide bowl. Stir to dissolve sugar.
