Soba Noodles and Cucumber Salad

Every year at The Hill School we have a cultural study.  This year we studied Japan.  Part of this three-day event  is a school wide feast. I develop recipes which are kid friendly but still in keeping of the country we are studying  – a fine line, and often create a great solid recipe with broad appeal.  These recipes are then given to the parents and they do the cooking – a true labor of love and the results are amazing.

4 Tbs Lime Juice Zest of 1 Lime 6 Tbs Soy Sauce 1 1/2 tsp  Sugar 1 tsp Sesame Oil 1 1/2 Tbs finely grated Ginger
