Soba second thought
Nov. 22nd, 2013 09:47 pmA little while ago, I posted about my experience with President's Choice soba noodles, which seemed to be of inferior quality and had wheat flour listed first in its ingredients, ahead of buckwheat.
Yesterday evening, we stopped at the T&T supermarket to stock up on more genuine soba noodles. We were surprised to discover that all of the soba noodles on sale seemed to have wheat flour listed first. We eventually bought packages of noodles that at least didn't have other things listed ahead of buckwheat, such as tapioca starch, and had a darker colour.
