Simple but very delicious! Holds great at room temperature-the perfect potluck salad! Ingredients:
16 ounces soba noodles (can substitute spaghetti) |
1/4 cup dark sesame oil, plus |
1 teaspoon dark sesame oil |
1/2 cup soy sauce |
1/4 cup sugar |
1/4 cup tahini |
2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar |
cayenne pepper (to taste) |
1 bunch green onion, sliced thin (greens & whites) |
1/2 cup toasted sesame seeds |
Directions:
1. In boiling salted water, cook noodles until tender, five to ten minutes. Rinse in cold water until cool. Drain and toss with 1 teaspoon sesame oil and set aside.
2. In a small saucepan over low heat, combine soy sauce and sugar. Simmer until syrupy, about ten minutes.
3. In a medium bowl, whisk together the tahini, 1/4 cup sesame oil, vinegar and water and soy/sugar mixture until smooth. Season to taste with cayenne.
4. To serve, toss noodles with dressing, green onions and sesame seeds, reserving some seeds for garnish.
