Seasonings

- Salt 3 pinches
- Chili oil to taste

- Vinegar 2 tsp
- Lemon juice to taste
Steps
- Wash the soil from the root of Komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach) 30-40g and roughly chop into bite-sized pieces.
- Prepare bean sprouts 30-40g without chopping.
- Mince garlic 10g.
- In a frying pan, add sesame oil 1 tbsp and minced garlic 5g, and stir-fry thoroughly until golden brown. Tip: By thoroughly stir-frying the garlic until its aroma is fully released, it becomes delicious without any lingering smell.
- Boil water and cook somen 100g for 40 seconds.
- Immediately rinse the cooked somen in cold water and squeeze out excess moisture thoroughly. Tip: By cooking somen al dente and shocking it with cold water, it won't stick together when stir-fried.
- Add the cooked somen to the frying pan and toss with sesame oil.
- Add [A] Kore! Uma!! Tsuyu 1 tbsp and 1 tsp, sake 1 tbsp, black pepper to taste, and salt 1 pinch, then stir-fry to combine.
- Serve on a plate, garnish with green onions to taste, and drizzle with chili oil to taste, if desired.
- Heat a frying pan with vegetable oil to taste until hot. Add salt 1 pinch to egg 1 and make scrambled eggs. Remove from heat when still soft-set to avoid overcooking.
- In the same frying pan, add sesame oil 1 tbsp, then add bacon 35g, roughly chopped Komatsuna (Japanese mustard spinach) 30-40g, and bean sprouts 30-40g, and stir-fry.
- Add [C] Kore! Uma!! Tsuyu a scant 1 tsp to the vegetables to season, then remove them from the frying pan. Tip: Seasoning the ingredients beforehand creates a unified flavor with the somen.
- Add vinegar 2 tsp to a pot of boiling water and cook somen 100g for 1 minute 20 seconds. Tip: Adding vinegar when boiling inexpensive somen strengthens its texture and prevents it from becoming bland.
- Rinse the cooked somen under running cold water and squeeze out excess moisture thoroughly.
- Add the cooked somen to the same frying pan and coat with the cooking oil.
- Add the previously stir-fried egg and vegetables, mixing and breaking them up.
- Add [B] Kore! Uma!! Tsuyu 1 tbsp and 1 tsp and black pepper to taste, then stir-fry to combine everything.
- Taste and add an additional [D] Kore! Uma!! Tsuyu 1/2 tsp, if desired, and mix well.
- Serve on a plate, sprinkle with chili oil to taste and black pepper to taste, if desired. For a flavor change, lemon juice to taste is also delicious.
