Kake Udon
Kake Udon is a warm, comforting, and simple Japanese noodle soup with an exquisite flavor profile. This dish is made with thick, chewy udon noodles submerged in a rich, savory broth, topped with crunchy tempura flakes, delicately sliced green onions, and colorful narutomaki. A staple in Japanese cuisine, Kake Udon has a rich history dating back to the Heian period (794-1185), when Buddhist monks brought wheat back from China and started producing udon noodles.
