Japanese Noodles- Copycat Recipe

When I lived in Iwakuni there was this Udon restaurant out by the Kintaikyou Bridge where we used to eat out a lot. One of the days I had this plum-ginger-lemon Udon that was so good I decided to try and make it when I got home. It doesn't taste exactly the same- but it's pretty close. I've shared it with many friends and I've yet to hear of someone who doesn't like it- plus it only takes about 10 min. to make. The combination may sound strange- but it's delicious. I'm also including pictures of the ingredients so if you choose to venture into the Asian Market to find them you wont be lost. 

Boil noodles- the best are Udon (the fat kind) but you can also use somen (skinny kind)
Udon soup packets- mix one in with the boiling water (same water you cooked the noodles in) 
Green onions
Seasame Seeds
Lemon
Plum Paste
Ginger paste (or shredded ginger)
-Squeeze the lemon and stir everything together before eating. 
Plum and Ginger paste

Udon soup packets

Sesame seeds
