There are many kinds of noodles eaten in Japan. Udon is white and the thickest noodles (about 4-6 mm wide.) Udon is made by kneading wheat flour, salt, and water. Dried udon, boiled udon, and fresh udon are available. To cook udon noodles, following the instruction in the package is the best since cooking time differs in each kind. If there isn't any instruction available, follow the basic steps below.
Udon can be eaten hot or cold and can be cooked in many ways. You might have seen udon noodles in hot soup. Cold udon is popular in hot times. Cold udon is eaten by dipping into dipping sauce. Mentsuyu can be purchased or can be made by mixing soy sauce, mirin, and Japanese dashi soup stock

Udon is a type of thick wheat-based noodle popular in Japanese cuisine.
Udon is usually served hot as noodle soup in a mildly flavored broth.

Udon noodles are Japanese wheat noodles. They are white and come in varying thicknesses. They are mostly served hot in soups but I love them cold in dressed salads too. They have a firm and pleasant slippery texture.
