This is an imitation of hiyashi chuuka soba, a favorite summertime dish. The only difference from the genuine hiyashi is the use of spaghetti noodles instead of ramen noodles. You will be surprised that you won’t taste that much of difference at all if you have tasted real hiyashi before.
Cook the spaghetti and let it cool. Mix the ingredients for the noodle sauce together. Prepare the toppings. Place cold spaghetti on a plate and garnish with toppings. Pour the sauce over the noodles just before eating.
