Cold Peanut Soba Noodles

I'm a huge fan of cold peanut noodles, especially soba noodles. Soba noodles are Japanese buckwheat noodles, and are great for vegetarians. A 2-ounce (dry) serving of soba noodles has 8 grams of protein and 12% of the RDA of dietary fiber - and no cholesterol. Add different vegetables if you wish (shredded cabbage is good, or water chestnuts), and if you're not vegetarian, add soy-marinated chicken, shrimp or even salmon. Cook time is for boiling the noodles.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

For the sauce

4 tablespoons peanut butter
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 tablespoons honey
2 tablespoons water
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 tablespoon rice vinegar
2 teaspoons sesame oil
crushed red pepper flakes (to taste)
4 ounces cooked soba noodles (or regular spaghetti)
1/2 red bell pepper, cut in strips
1/2 cup julienned carrot
2 green onions, sliced
1/2 cup peanuts (I like the Spanish redskins; roasted will do, also)

Directions

1
Combine sauce ingredients thoroughly.
2
Toss cooked soba noodles (or spaghetti) with vegetables.
3
Add sauce and combine to coat everything.
4
(Since the flavors are so intense, I like my noodles a little on the"dry" side-- you can make this dish more"saucy" if you wish.) Add peanuts, adjust seasoning, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.

This was pretty good. 4oz of noodles isn't nearly enough for the amount of sauce it makes, I ended up making another 4oz for a total of 8oz. Also I thought it needed added salt and a little bit of lime to give it some sort of kick. Otherwise, it was just a little to bland for my tastes.

We really enjoyed this. It was very easy and had tons of flavor. I added 2 grilled chicken breasts to the dish and used linguine instead of the actual soba noodles. Will make again. Thanks!
