If you soak the tempura too long, the texture isn't great. I just eat it separately—one bite of noodles, one bite of crispy tempura.

NISSIN Donbei Tempura Soba (East)
Cup Soba with Delicious Crunchy Tempura
“Donbei” is a product that has been long-loved since its launch in 1976 as a series of instant cup udon and soba.
This soba is packed with crunch tempura, and the soup is filled with the aromas of katsuo dashi and the umami of whole soybean soy sauce.
Add the soup packet, pour in boiling water, and wait 3 minutes. Take note that you should add in the tempura right before eating so that the crispy crunchy texture is at its peak for you to enjoy!
Highlights
-
Enjoy the crunchy tempura’s texture best by adding the tempura right before eating.
-
There is a hole in the center of the uncooked noodles, so you can make tsukimi soba by placing a raw egg there before pouring in the boiling water.
-
The eastern and western versions of the soup, separated by Sekigahara (Gifu Prefecture), offer different flavors.
