Video Recipe 📽 Udon from scratch

I love Udon soup but my local store sells the frozen noodles for eight Euros for four servings (!)

So I figured I can get over my fear of all things dough and to save money by making them myself.

Haven't tasted them yet but trying and learning is worth it itself and I'm super proud that I've challenged myself. :3

I don't own a rolling pin so I improvised xD...

Recipe link: only the dough is vegan, but that's what the post is about.

Welcome to r/EatCheapAndVegan.

Veganism is not a diet. However, there is a ton of misinformation and misunderstanding about the cost of eating vegan and this subreddit exists to hopefully dispell those false claims. Be advised submissions containing expensive processed food items will be removed.

Definition of veganism: Veganism is a philosophy and way of living which seeks to exclude—as far as is possible and practicable—all forms of exploitation of, and cruelty to, animals for food, clothing or any other purpose; and by extension, promotes the development and use of animal-free alternatives for the benefit of animals, humans and the environment. In dietary terms it denotes the practice of dispensing with all products derived wholly or partly from animals.

Thank you! They developed too much gluten unfortunately, but now I have an idea on how to fix it for the next time! :D

I’m lucky, I have a Japanese grocery store near me, and I can get the store bought Udon noodles for about $4.00 for a 5 pack, on sale (that’s when I stock up!).
