A: Traditional soba noodles contain buckwheat and wheat flour. If you need a gluten-free option, look for 100% buckwheat soba noodles.

Three Mushrooms Soba Noodle Miso Soup
Ingredients
- 1 bundle soba noodle
- 3 cups vegetable broth
- 1 small oyster mushrooms sliced
- 3 shiitake mushrooms sliced
- 3 large white mushrooms sliced
- ¼ cup grated carrots
- 1 ½ tablespoon miso paste
Instructions
- Cook the soba noodles in boiling water for about 5-7 minutes until the noodles have softened. Drain the noodles and run them through cold water to prevent them from continuing to cook and to keep them from sticking to each other. Set aside for now.
- In a medium sized pot, heat vegetable broth over medium heat. Once the vegetable broth is boiling, add the sliced mushrooms and cook them until they’ve softened.
- Next, add the miso paste to the broth. Stir to evenly incorporate the miso paste in the soup. The soup will appear cloudy.
- Add the soba noodles and grated carrots, and cook them until they become warm.
- Serve the soup warm.
