ITA SOBA (Soba noodle on a long board) Soul Food of Yamagata Prefecture
useful information
"ITA SOBA (Soba on a long board)" is eaten in the inland areas of Yamagata Prefecture, and is a dish of soba noodles served on a long board for several people. It is said to have originated in Murayama City. Buckwheat has been cultivated in Yamagata Prefecture since ancient times, and there was a custom of serving soba noodles to relatives and neighbors. It seems to have been born from the idea that it would be convenient to serve soba noodles on wooden board when many people eat them together. The most important thing about ita soba is the board or container, and the thickness of the soba noodles and the thickness of the soba soup vary (compared to regular soba, it is often thick and dark, and has a thinner soba soup)..
