【Soba noodles】
If you like Soba noodles, I want to know! The birthplace of "Soba Kiri", Shiojiri, Motoyama inn
In the past, "Soba noodles" were in the form of dango, which is similar to what we now call "Soba noodles".
The elongated noodles that we think of when we hear the word "Soba" are called "Soba noodles" and seem to have been distinguished from the dango-shaped ones.
The birthplace of "Soba Kiri" is the current Motoyama inn in Shiojiri City.
It is said that the Soba kiri, which was born in Honyama inn, which was also a place where many travelers visit as a Post Town of Nakasendo, spread throughout the country through Highway.
Shiojiri City was originally a place suitable for the Cultivation of high-quality Soba with a large daily and annual range of temperatures, and it seems that Soba has been Cultivation for a long time, but the oldest literature on Soba cutting in Motoyama inn can be found in the description of Unsuzu in the haibun selection "Genre Bunsen" compiled by Morikawa Kyoroku in the 2nd year of Hoei (1705). It is written that "Soba Kiri and Tsukipa, originally from Shinano Province and Motoyama Inn, will be enjoyed throughout the country."
