Warm Soba Noodle Salad

You gotta love soba noodles. They have so much flavour and this is such a simple salad even the kids will love it.

 

Dressing

• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 1 tbsp. rice wine vinegar
• 1 tbsp. honey
• 1/4 tsp. Asian chili sauce

Combine all the ingredients in a small pot and bring to a boil. Stir constantly to dissolve the honey and remove from heat.

 

Salad

• 8 oz. dried soba noodles
• 1/4 cup julienned green onions
• 2 cups julienned carrots
• 2 tbsp. toasted sesame seeds

Bring a large pot of water to the boil and cook the noodles for 3 minutes (only al dente. Drain.

Toss the noodles with the dressing, onions and carrots. The noodles will look ‘just wet’ but they will absorb the dressing. Sprinkle with sesame seeds. This should be served warm.
