cold noodle, best meal ever in hot summer

~noodle, veges&co.~
noodle
cucumber
ham
eggs
tomatoes
~soup~
fish or chicken broth 3 tablespoons & 1 teaspoon (50 cc)
sugar 2 tablespoons
vinegar 3 tablespoons
soy sauce 2 tablespoons (if you have a choice, use "koikuchi")
sesame oil 2~3 teaspoons
ground sesame
(ground ginger if you like)
1. mix all soup materials and stir well. keep it cold.
2. boil noodle accordingly, wash it with cold water and drain(squeeze) water well. (i love using "somen" or "hiyamugi" but "ramen" or "reimen" noodle is commonly used. super-thin pasta like fedelini would do too.)
3. make shredded omelet with 1 or 2 eggs and a bit of sugar. (cook some very thin omelets, cut into thin strips.)
4. cut cucumber and ham into thin strips.
5. decorate cucumber, ham, eggs, some fresh tomatoes on top of the cold noodle, pour the cold soup onto it before serving.
for variations
-add some mayonnaise for mayonnaise lovers, mustard for mustard lovers, on the plate before serving.
-add some broad bean chili in soup if you like it spicy hot. (normal chili or tabasco may work but ive never tried them.)
-sprouts, alfalfa, some lettuce and seaweed is nice to add too.
-sliced boiled eggs instead of shredded omelet works if you are lazy, but tastes a lot different.
-instead of ham, tuna or some steamed chicken meat go well too. some may prefer boiled shrimps.
-shredded nori (toasted laver/seaweed) makes it even more professional if you can obtain it where you live.
-i personally love adding ume-boshi (pickled japanese plum) on top of it.
the pic above is taken from internet just for an image, and doesnt use sesame, but imo ground sesame is a must.
