Kanuma Nira Soba
A bountiful serving of vibrant green chives rests atop cold soba noodles served in a zaru (tray). As you lift them with your chopsticks and dip them into the dipping sauce, the crunchy texture of the chives and the smooth glide of the soba noodles rush together in your mouth. The aroma of the chives is unexpectedly gentle, with a subtle sweetness that softly enhances the flavor of the soba. Kanuma is one of the leading soba towns in the Kanto region and is also a famous producer of chives. Chives in season from winter to spring are so succulent that they release juice when bitten; simply blanching them and placing them on top transforms a simple bowl into a feast. The delicacy of the soba meets the lively strength of the chives. This unexpected pairing is addictive—a nutritious specialty that the people of Kanuma have savored for generations.
