About Yoshida Udon

Yoshida Udon (吉田うどん, Yoshida udon) is a beloved traditional dish from Fujiyoshida City in Yamanashi Prefecture, known for its exceptionally firm and chewy noodles. These thick, square-shaped noodles require a satisfying effort to bite through, releasing the rich, natural flavor of the wheat with every chew.

Another unique feature of Yoshida Udon is its choice of toppings, which often includes cabbage and sweet-savory simmered horse meat. The cabbage adds a light, refreshing crunch while aiding digestion, and the horse meat provides a delectable depth of flavor. No bowl of Yoshida Udon is complete without "Suridane," a special condiment made from ground red chili peppers, sesame seeds, and fragrant Japanese pepper. Adding just a touch of this spicy seasoning enhances the dish with a bold, zesty kick.

The broth, a harmonious blend of soy sauce and miso, is enriched with the umami of dried sardines and shiitake mushrooms, making it the perfect complement to the noodles and toppings. In the local community, Yoshida Udon is a popular and affordable lunchtime favorite, with dedicated fans often visiting multiple shops around the city to savor the many variations of this comforting dish.
