Why Inaniwa udon at Sato Yosuke is famous
Inaniwa udon is hand-stretched, dried, and much thinner and flatter than ordinary udon, with a glassy surface. The method was a closely held secret for about three centuries, passed down one family line. Sato Yosuke has made it since 1860 and was the house that finally taught it to others.
