Yakisoba is a popular Japanese stir-fried noodle dish made from wheat noodles, typically flavored with a savory sauce. The dish often includes a variety of ingredients such as vegetables, meat (commonly pork or chicken), and sometimes seafood. It is known for its slightly sweet and tangy taste, which comes from the sauce made with ingredients like soy sauce and Worcestershire sauce.
Traditionally served as a street food, yakisoba is commonly found at festivals and food stalls in Japan. It can be garnished with toppings like benishoga (pickled ginger), aonori (seaweed flakes), and katsuobushi (dried bonito flakes), enhancing its flavor and presentation.
