Instead of pasta salad -- Cold Spicy Soba Noodle Recipe!

I've been using this recipe for pot lucks and picnic's for the past 10 years. It always receives rave reviews.

* 1/3 cup soy sauce
* 2 tablespoons brown sugar
* 1 tablespoon molasses
* 3 tablespoons sesame oil
* 3 tablespoons tahini
* 3 tablespoons chili oil
* 3 tablespoons balsamic or red wine vinegar
* Salt
* 1/2 pound soba or Japanese buckwheat noodles
* 1/2 bunch scallions, white and green parts, thinly sliced

Directions

Place soy sauce in a saucepan over medium heat, add brown sugar and bring to a boil. Turn heat to low, stir in molasses, and return to simmer. Transfer to a mixing bowl. Add sesame oil, tahini, chili oil, and vinegar, and whisk to combine. Season to taste with salt, if desired.

Bring a large pot of salted water to a rapid boil. Add noodles, bring back to a boil, and cook, stirring occasionally, until they just begin to soften, about 3 minutes. (Soba noodles can overcook very quickly, so stay nearby.)

Have ready a large bowl of iced water. Drain noodles, plunge in iced water, and drain again. Place in a colander and rinse well under cold running water. Combine noodles and sauce, toss well with scallions, and chill.

Whataya call it?
Very interesting dressing! You could incorporate some cooked meat into that too!
It does sound like something I'd really like. Want to come over and make some for me. We're having orange chicken and rice tomorrow. This would go good with it. I just don't want to tackle the crowds at the grocery store today!!! :lol:

I have friends that toss a bit of chicken and thin cut raw carrot in the mix.

I’d love to, but dang, it’s just to hot and humid for me in your neighborhood. Now if you make it up North, the invitation is open for a double batch.


FYI, Soba noodles can be hard to find in some areas, substituting Udon works. Most every market carries Udon.
