Tupper Tips:

  • To keep dish gluten-free, ensure you use 100% buckwheat soba noodles, available from health food shops and use a rice-based miso and gluten-free tamari sauce.
  • Miso paste and tamari can be found in the health food or Asian aisle of your local supermarket and from health food shops/Asian grocers.
