Cook the soba noodles according to the instructions on the package, then drain them and rinse them well under cold water. Drain again and set aside. Prepare the broth. Bring 75cl of water to the boil, add the Xtra Hojicha tea and simmer for 5 minutes. Strain the liquid and return it to the pot. Add the ginger and garlic and let it simmer for about 10 minutes. Cut the cabbage in half lengthwise and the peeled carrot into sticks. Thinly slice the cives. Still on the stove, remove the ginger and garlic from the broth and add the soy sauce, rice vinegar, powdered sugar and pepper and mix well. Add the mushrooms and cabbage and cook for 2 or 3 minutes at low simmer. Add the carrots and continue cooking for another minute. If necessary, add soy sauce, vinegar and pepper. Divide the noodles among the dishes, then pour in the hot broth and vegetables. Sprinkle with the cives and a few pinches of sesame seeds. Finish by placing the peeled and halved eggs on top.
