From the Test Kitchen

The word “shoyu” refers to Japanese soy sauce, traditionally made with soybeans and wheat. In this recipe, we’re using a light variety of shoyu­—lighter than regular soy sauce in color, flavor and consistency. Together with citrusy yuzu juice, it creates a delectable, smooth dressing for our soba noodles. Seared cod dusted with togarashi-inspired spices (including sweet and hot paprika and dried orange peel) completes this easy, sophisticated dinner.
