Soba Salad

傍 or soba means noodle in Japanese. I made a simple noodle salad with a 酒 (sake, Japanese wine) vinaigrette. I chopped up some common vegetables such as cucumber, olives, lettuce, and carrots. I tossed them in a bowl and poured the sake in as I mixed everything together. I poured the boiled 焼きそば (yakisoba) noodles over the contents of the bowl. Once they were incorporated, I sprinkled toasted sesame seeds and chopped peanuts over the top. 

Have you ever had a meal where alcohol was one of the main ingredients?
