Aburasoba litterally means "Oily noodles", but the name is not necessarily reflecting its own characteristics.
In the bowl of Aburasoba, soup does not cover the noodles, rather stays
at the bottom of the bowl. Before eating, Aburasoba needs stirring well
to dress the noodles with the souup.
The ingredients of soup are basically the same as ones of ramen, chicken
& pork bone based broth and say sauce. (altohough they differ by shops.)
This menu is said to be invented and introduced by Chinchintei in Musashisakai
for the first time. It got spotlighted by mass medium 5-6 years ago. Since
then, the number of shops offering this menu has incresed, but it has not
reached to be major menu like Tsukemen. |
