Important Notes
Boiling the somen for a short time, 40-45 seconds, creates a delicious, firm texture (bari-kata). 💡
It is important to squeeze the water out of the somen thoroughly; otherwise, the soup will become diluted. ⚠️
Chilling the soup in the refrigerator beforehand makes it taste even better. 🍳
