CITRUS GINGER SOBA NOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Make the citrus ginger dressing: In a sealable jar, combine the orange juice, lime juice, tamari, toasted sesame oil, ginger, and minced garlic. Tightly close the lid on the jar and shake vigorously to combine. Set aside.
• Prepare the noodles according to package directions. For most soba noodles, heat a pot of unsalted water over high heat. Once boiling, add the noodles. Turn the heat to medium and let boil for 5-7 minutes. It's best to cook them for a shorter amount of time to avoid them getting sticky. Immediately drain the noodles and rinse to cold water. Let noodles come to room temperature and place them into a large bowl.
• To prepare the edamame and snap peas, place 3 cups of water in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Add the frozen shelled edamame. Let boil for 3 minutes then add in the snap peas. Let boil for another 1-2 minutes. Strain and rinse with cold water. Remove the snap peas and cut in half on a diagonal. You can also just add these to the boiling pasta water, if you want to forgo the additional pan.
• Once the noodles have cooled to room temperature, toss them with the edamame, shredded cabbage, snap peas, orange segments, and dressing. Taste the salad for seasoning and adjust if necessary (more orange juice, lime juice, tamari, or even a splash of rice vinegar!). Add the chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
• Serve the soba noodle salad with additional chopped green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds. Store the salad in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.

• In the bottom of a medium bowl, whisk together the vinaigrette: lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, ginger, sesame oil, and sambal oelek (chili paste).
• Add the soba noodles and green beans to the bowl with the vinaigrette along with the grated carrot, scallions, and black roasted sesame seeds.
• Toss well to coat and season with salt and pepper to taste before serving.

SOBA NOODLE SALAD

Steps:

• Boil water and cook buckwheat noodles according to package directions. (Bring water to boil, do not add salt and cook for 5-7 minutes. Noodles should not be al dente but also not mushy.
• Have a bowl of cold water ready and rinse cooked buckwheat noodles well so all the sticky stuff is gone. Drain.
• Wash greens. Drain. Unless you are using baby greens, cut your greens into strips.
• You can use whatever combination - just try to have some leaves with firm texture like kale and radicchio. And greens like Perilla or Ssukkat which will add another great dimension of minty flavor.
• Make dressing: mix soy sauce, vinegar and sugar until sugar dissolves. Add sesame oil and wasabi and mix again. Add sesame seeds. If you find sesame oil fragrance too strong, you can use 1 tsp sesame oil and 2 tsp vegetable oil instead.
• When you are ready to eat, assemble the noodles and greens together in a bowl. DO NOT pour all the dressing. I use about 2 Tbs + 1 tsp dressing for 1 bundle of dry noodles. Generally, I use about 4 tsp dressing per 1 cup of cooked soba noodles. Add dressing, toss and Serve. Noodles will absorb the dressing so don't mix too much ahead of time.
