Description
"Toshikoshi Soba" translates to "soba of the year passing." This noodle dish was traditionally prepared to quickly feed the family after their New Year's visit to the temple. Since then, buckwheat noodles with broth have become the main festive treat for the Japanese and the last dish to be eaten before midnight: they believe that this way they can smoothly transition into the new year, leaving all hardships behind, and that things will go much better in the future. The noodles must be thick and long: the longer they are, the longer the lives of those gathered at the table. Therefore, on the eve of the holiday, super-long handmade soba—up to two meters or more—is specially ordered. But that's not all: to gain longevity, one must slurp the noodles in whole, rather than eating them in pieces.
