Video Of The Day: The Making Of Udon Noodles
"For Udon and Country" from The Perennial Plate on Vimeo.
It's easy to think of udon noodles as just another delicious kind of food, but, as with most food, there's more to the story than what winds up on your plate. This film by The Perennial Plate focuses on Shimizu San. He's been making udon noodles for the last 45 years at his farm in a small town outside of Tokyo. He not only makes the noodles from scratch, but he grows the wheat for them, too. The footage is beautiful as well as the music. It only takes five minutes to understand udon noodles on a completely different level. Enjoy!
