First vegan dish i ever made…it was great. I added cayenne to it too. Wonderful and so simple…so much better than a cream sauce!

hi Mary Kate! I almost bought soba instead, but for the Meatless Monday, it was Udon week, so…

but yes! I will be making this recipe often, and will be using a gluten free noodle or even a spiralized veggie noodle. can’t wait!

I would bet that pure buckwheat soba or the rice stick noodles (which likely have a name I don’t know) would both work well with that sauce — and be gluten free.

hi Chris! I like the bundles also – the package says each bundle is one serving, which is what I used, and it made a lot! I hope you enjoy this recipe – I know it will be a favorite at our house, we are already looking forward to it again.

hi Laurie!

as the recipe says – While noodles cook, peel ginger and mince fine – using side of knife to press into a paste.

To do this, I peel the ginger with the side of a spoon, this is a very easy method of peeling. Then mince fine, almost into a paste.

I hope this helps!

What a lovely dish! I like the way udon noodles are packed with this small ‘paper’ wrapped around it to make small bundles. I will use them more often and here is a good recipe for it.
