Dango-jiru

 

Dango-jiru is a beloved “soul food” and a staple of the daily diet in Oita.

It features rustic, hand-stretched flat wheat noodles, each uniquely shaped by

hand to create a delightful chewy texture. This heartwarming home-style soup

is packed with local seasonal vegetables, offering a true taste of Oita’s traditional lifestyle.

 

A historic specialty with roots in the 16th-century Sengoku period. Born from the ingenuity

of Oita’s farmers, this dish features hand-stretched noodles in a savory miso broth—

a traditional “soul food” that satisfied both humble farmers and powerful samurai
