How to make SOMEN Noodle (Japanese style cold noodle) 〜そうめん〜 | easy Japanese home cooking recipe

In this video, I am showing how to make Somen Noodle, a typical summer dish, which we often eat cold. I am also showing three variation of toppings, all of which are vegetarian.
This is a revised version of the previous video of Somen Noodle, since the last video lacked the process of making the Mentsuyu sauce.
