Ingredients

Instructions

1. Cook the soba according to the package. Meanwhile, mix the rice vinegar, sugar and salt in a medium bowl.
2. Drain the soba, rinse under running water and drain very well. Add to the vinegar mixture and leave for a couple of minutes.
3. Move the soba to a paper-towel-lined plate and let it dry a little.
4. Cut the tamagoyaki and cucumber into thin long strips about 8 cm long and 1 cm thick. Pieces may be joined end to end to reach a total length of about 8 cm.
5. Lay a sushi mat flat with the bamboo slats running left to right. Place a sheet of nori with one short edge near you.
6. Spread about one third of the soba over the nori, parallel to the slats, leaving about 2.5 cm bare at the near and far edges.
7. Place the tamagoyaki, a cucumber strip and a crab stick side by side in the middle of the soba. Hold the filling down and roll away from you, tightening the roll as you go like a roll cake. Remove from the mat.
8. Cut the roll into rounds about 3-4 cm thick. Serve with soy sauce and wasabi if you like.
