love story簡譜的八卦，Yahoo名人娛樂都在討論

1989年，Michael、哥哥和我一起在蘭桂坊吃飯，哥哥想寫一首歌來紀念他的引退，我建議他為「風繼續吹」寫一首續篇，於是哥哥就突然想出一段旋律，Michael馬上把旋律簡譜寫在白紙上，然後他回家就動手編曲，我只憑簡譜就動手寫詞，「風再起時」就是這樣誕生的。
This is us. This is our story.

Sōmen (素麺) is very thin Japanese noodles made of wheat flour. The noodles are usually served cold in summer with a dashi flavored tasty dipping sauce called Mentsuyu (めんつゆ).

Topping ingredients are optional, so you can skip them, but the easiest is ham, egg, and cucumber.

Somen is perfect dish to serve on Tanabata, which is a festival celebrated on July 7th. People write their wishes on strips of paper and hang them on bamboo trees. Moreover, there is a Tanabata story. I don't think the story is that romantic, but it is about Vega (Orihime 織姫) and Altair (Kengyuu 牽牛(彦星)). They fell in love with each other but without working. So the emperor (Tentei 天帝, Orihime's father) decided to separate them on opposite sides of the river of the Milky Way. Now they could see each other, only once a year on Tanabata July 7th, if they work hard.

In the end of the video, I will show you how you can arrange the Somen for Tanabata ;)
But this is not that good idea because the noodles stick together when you eat... you know what I mean...

---------------------------------
Somen Noodles

Difficulty: Very Easy
Time: 15min
Number of servings: 1-2

Ingredients:
((Toppings))
1 egg
2 inches cucumber
4 or 5 ham slices
*you can chop ginger, scallion, shiso leaves, etc...
((Dipping Sauces))
A 80ml water + 20ml Kamada Dashi Shoyu
B 80ml soy milk + 20ml Kamada Dashi Shoyu
C 80ml tomato juice + 15ml Kamada Dashi Shoyu
*instead of using Kamada Dashi Shoyu you can use regular Mentsuyu but make sure you dilute as instructed because the level of concentration vary from product to product. Kamada Dashi Shoyu is 4 or 5 times concentrated to make Mentsuyu.
((Somen Noodles))
2 bundles of dried Somen noodles

Directions:
((Toppings))
Beat 1 egg in a bowl (you can season it with sugar or salt). Heat cooking oil in a pan and make a thin omelette. If you don't have a rectangle omelette pan, you can make a circle thin omelette. Then cut the egg, cucumber, and ham slices into thin strips.
((Dipping Sauces))
Mix A, B, C separately, and keep them cool in the fridge until ready to serve.
((Somen Noodles))
Boil water in a large pan. Add dried Somen noodles in the boiling water and gently stir noodles with chopsticks. Cook Somen noodles according to your package (mine was 3 min). Drain the noodles in a strainer and rinse the noodles with hands under running water. Then soak them in a bowl of iced water to chill. Take bite-size portion of the noodles and roll them on your finger (like you roll pasta on a fork), and place them on a dish.

Serve the noodles with the toppings and the dipping sauces :)
Serve before the noodles absorb too much water.

When Somen noodles get dry, their gluten get strong and sticky. So they will stick together nicely in bite-size portions. When you eat, dip one portion in the dipping sauce, then shake to release the noodles.

NOTE: Did anyone realize my mistake?!

I said in the video, "4 times concentrated" but mixed 4 times as much water to make the dipping sauce... actually it should be 3 times as much water. (but this is OK, because on it's package it says you can dilute it with 4 times as much water). So for Yamaki mentsuyu, you have to mix one time as much water because it is 2 times concentrated... BUT on it's package it says you can mix it with 1-3 times water...

Therefore, not that big difference to eat! but sorry for my mistake...
