Cold Soba Noodles Salad
Directions
- Like any noodles and pasta, you'll need to cook the soba noodles in boiling water. However, you MUST rinse the soba noodles under cold water after cooking to remove any starches.
- Unlike other types of pastas, you shouldn't salt the water.
- Drop the noodles in the water and boil for a few minutes until tender, then drain the noodles.
- To keep the noodles from sticking together, toss them in oil while you make the sauces.
- Warm Soba Noodles Recipe:
- In a bowl mix together the sauce ingredients: the soy sauce, miso, rice vinegar, sesame oil, sugar and seasoning.
- Over a non stick skillet, sauté the green onions and sesame oil for just a few seconds until fragrant.
- Add in the sauce base from the bowl and cook for about a minute to simmer and infuse.
- At that point you're ready to add in the cooked soba noodles and toss them with the sauce.
- Finish off with plenty of toasted sesame seeds, some black sesame seeds if you want to, along with plenty of green onions.
- Cold Soba Noodles Salad Recipe:
- In a medium bowl, mix all the dressing ingredients together. This includes the sesame oil, rice vinegar, soy sauce, some honey and seasoning.
- Add the cooked and cooled soba noodles on to a plate and top with the veggies you choose. Thinly sliced bokchoy, snap peas, cucumbers, coloured bell peppers and green onions.
- Add the cilantro leaves, mint leaves and sesame seeds.
- Pile the veggies over the noodles and drizzle with the dressing above.
- Toss everything well to coat. Serve right away.
- Bon appétit
