There was formerly no custom of eating soba noodles on New Year's Eve in Okinawa Prefecture; however, many people have recently begun to eat soba noodles in this way, although many of them eat Okinawan soba noodles instead of "Nihon-soba"noodles (literally, Japanese buckwheat noodles). |
沖縄県では、以前は年越し蕎麦を食べる習慣はなかったが、近年は食べる人も多くなっている(ただし、日本そばではなく沖縄そばを食べる人の割合が多い)。 |
