@@IchibanYummyJapan It's not common at all! I've only tried udon noodles when I became an adult and got my first paycheck -- it's considered an Asian delicacy in Poland, where I live. I use it often in my cooking now (because it's delicious!) but what we usually eat is just very basic egg and wheat based pasta, although often homemade! I'm looking forward to when I can try professionally made udon dish :)
I'm now starting to realize that eating udon/soba noodles cold isn't common especially in western countries. I'm glad you use udon in your cooking a lot :) I'm just wondering, but is udon more common/known than soba in Poland/Europe ?
@IchibanYummyJapan I think it's easier to get udon noodles than high quality soba. I've seen it maybe twice in speciality shops? Even then, it was in ready-to-eat/instant dishes (like the Nissin brand I saw the other day). I know there is a restaurant in Warsaw, our capital that serves it, but that is quite far away from where I live -- maybe I'll try it in the future! I'll have to center a whole trip around it, haha :)
Please try it maybe in the summer. Would it be OK for you to hear slurping sounds? I hear people (especially from western countries) are uncomfortable hearing it.
I'm glad you are used to hearing the slurping sounds. When I visited a lounge at San Jose Airport, there was a Japanese man slurping his instant noodles very loud and a few ( I assume ) Americans near him looked very uncomfortable, so since then, I have a stereotype many Americans don't like that lol
@@IchibanYummyJapan lol. No, not all Americans are like that. For some of us it’s a bit of culture shock. We were taught that slurping is considered rude. But there are those of us who learn to understand that different cultures have different eating styles. Mine is Mexican/Native American. We eat with tortillas or with our hands.
It looks so fresh and gooood 🤩
Udon is my all time favorite but ive never had it cold! Very interesting, I will have to try it in the future! Thank you so much for the video :)
Reading some comments, having udon/soba/ramen noodles cold isn't that common in most countries ?
Please try cold udon and hope you like it :)

Thanks for the info :)
The instant Nissin brand soba was maybe the instant yakisoba (stirfried noodles) ?
I feel bad you had to mute. But that looks good. I’ve never had old udon.
Please try it maybe in the summer.

@@IchibanYummyJapan I live in the United States. I go to a lot of Asian restaurants so I am used to hearing the slurping sounds.

Maybe I'll consider stopping to mute on slurping parts.
I might just show a warning before slurping scenes start.
