Sesame Noodles

This is one of the most popular recipes I've ever made! From kid's to old folks everyone loves these noodles. Add some spicy "Rooster sauce" and more ginger to give it even more flavor. I have now adjusted my original recipe post (9/07). Apparently an employee had written the recipe down incorrectly cause I never measured. It's a really easy dish to make for pot luck's etc. Toast your sesame seeds if they haven't already been toasted for better flavor. Almost all of the ingredients are available at any Oriental Market and most regular grocery stores. You can add other ingredients to make it a whole meal. --Please note-- the soy sauce amount was incorrect in this recipe! I have now changed it! Add more if you like.

Sorry, I just wasn't a big fan. The sesame oil was a bit overwhelming.

    These were fantastic! I made enough for me, no leftovers. I just kinda eye-balled everything. How simple of a dish is this? Sometimes, its nice to have a no-brainer go to for supper. I like the idea others have had about adding some meat. So versatile, and so good. I couldn't find black sesame seeds, so I used regular, but I toasted mine. That gives it another layer of flavor. I also used red pepper flakes instead of cayenne, just a preference thing, and it does need that little kick of heat in it. Next time, I'm going to add a little garlic in, too. Thanks sassafrassnanc, for adding a great recipe to my collection.

    I enjoyed these noodles, but may wind up playing around with it a bit due to personal taste. The recipe itself would be (imo) a good base for a chow-mein style dish...and next time (mental note to future self) I need to use a little more cayenne. This time I used 1/8 tsp. and it was good, but not quite enough. The full 1/4 might be too much (personal taste...I'm a spice wussy), but definitely more than the 1/8 tsp. Overall, a good recipe though...thank you for posting it!

    I'm giving this five stars because I love all the ingredients and I just took lazy to a new level with this. It's just me for lunch and I was craving hot noodles but wanted to do as little as possible. I didn't measure anything, just used my eyes. I boiled water and added enough noodles for me. Put noodles in strainer and pot back on burner. To the pot I added some sesame oil, clipped green onion tops right in, added ginger, soy sauce, vinegar and asian chili sauce. Put noodles back in and mock stir fried, cracked an egg on top, topped with seeds. Great flavor with little effort. There are so many potential dishes with this as a base. This would also make an excellent side dish to grilled steak in an asian marinade.
