Negi Shio Dare(Japanese Green Onion Sauce)
I can’t believe it’s been 16 to 18 years, but back when I was in Japan, my absolute go-to order at Matsuya was their Negi Shio Buta Don (pork bowl with green onion sauce). That dish was my introduction to this delicious sauce! Around that time, Negi Shio really started booming in Japan, popping up on all kinds of menus and store shelves—including Negi Shio Yakisoba.
Personally, I still prefer classic sauce for my yakisoba, but spooning a little Negi Shio Dare on top as a garnish adds an amazing extra burst of flavor! It pairs wonderfully with grilled meats, cold tofu, and so much more. I hope you enjoy it!
