Gomu Yakisoba (Rubber Yakisoba)
With just one bite, you experience a plump and bouncy sensation. The surprisingly strong chewiness, unlike any other yakisoba you've ever eaten, will make your eyes widen. Gomu Yakisoba is a local delicacy that can only be found in Fukuchiyama, Kyoto. It is made using a method called 'Fukamushi' (deep steaming), where the noodles are steamed twice in a bamboo steamer, resulting in thick noodles with an elasticity similar to rubber. Due to this unique texture, the local shopping district named it 'Gomu Yakisoba' around 2009 and promoted it as a centerpiece for regional revitalization. The texture is addictive and lives up to its impactful name. Once you are hooked, you will find yourself longing for that plump sensation. If you ever visit Fukuchiyama, please give it a try.
