I love noodles. In fact, I love it so much that it is the first thing that I check out in a menu whenever I go eat at a restaurant. I doesn’t matter if it’s Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Korean or any other cuisine. As long as they have long strips of carbohydrates then I am ordering that.
I particularly love soba noodles. Soba is one of my most favorite Japanese foods. I love how soft and flavorful soba noodles are and how it complements the condiments and additional ingredients included with the dish. Of course, just like with any other noodle, freshly made soba is better than the commercially available dried ones. I know how hard it is to make soba so I was quite delighted to discover an actual soba machine being sold in Japan. Now, anyone can make soba, even at home. The machine will allow a user to make soba in just 20 minutes. The maker, Takara Tomy, designed the machine similarly to Italian pasta machines, meaning it is quite easy to operate. who says you need to be an accomplished soba chef to make soba? Now you can make your own soba!

I am looking for someone who can write about Japanese toiletries (shampoo, facial cream, deodorant etc) in English. If you are interested or know anyone who maybe interested, please contact me. I am a trendwatcher who follows the European market and I need someone in Japan who can tell us in Europe about new Japanese products. I guess the work load would be 1 day/month so not a lot of work, but possibly interesting for a free lancer. I can give more info once we have made contact. Many thanks
