Noodles And Vegetables With Sesame Dipping Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• Bring a pot of water to a boil, and season generously with salt.
• In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, vinegar, ginger and garlic. Season with salt and pepper, and mix well.
• Once the water boils, cook the pasta according to package directions until al dente. Reserve 3/4 cup pasta cooking water, then drain. Transfer pasta to a large bowl. Add half the dressing and 1/4 cup pasta water, season with salt and pepper and toss to evenly coat.
• Meanwhile, in a large deep-sided saucepan, heat safflower oil over medium. Add onion and bell peppers, season with salt and pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden and tender, about 10 minutes. Add snap peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 2 minutes. Add tomatoes, 1/4 cup pasta water and the remaining dressing. Stir to deglaze the pan and lift the browned bits on the bottom of the skillet, then add vegetable mixture (with sauce) and scallions to pasta and toss until well combined (add more pasta water if thinner sauce is desired). Season with salt and pepper.
• Serve warm or at room temperature. Garnish with scallions and sesame seeds, if using.

Steps:

• First make the dressing. Mix the tahini with 2 tbsp water, then stir in the soy sauce, rice vinegar and sugar. Set aside.
• Cook the noodles following pack instructions, then drain and rinse well under cold water. Divide the noodles between 2 bowls and top with the sugar snaps, red pepper and cucumber. Just before serving, pour over the dressing and sprinkle with the toasted sesame seeds.

Steps:

• Combine 2 tablespoons smooth peanut butter, 2 tablespoons, dark soy, 2 tablespoons chili oil, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, MSG, and 2 teaspoons sugar in a bowl.
• Boil 12 ounces oriental noodles. Drain. Add 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds, and the prepared sauce. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir the garlic and red pepper flakes in the hot oil until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the ginger, soy sauce, honey, orange juice, sesame oil, lime juice, and sesame seeds; stir. Cook until heated, 2 to 3 minutes more.

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil, and salt it. Cook noodles until tender but not mushy. Drain, and quickly rinse under cold running water until cold. Drain well.
• Combine dashi or stock, soy sauce and mirin. Taste, and add a little more soy if the flavor is not strong enough. Serve noodles with garnishes, with sauce on side for dipping (or spooning over).
