SESAME NOODLE SALAD

This amazing salad recipe was given to me by a friend who used to know someone at the now closed Larry's Markets in the Seattle area. I've added to the recipe a little -- so it's not exactly the same... but better! I take this to every picnic and everyone loves it! May also add diced chicken for a variation.

Time 20m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 (16 ounce) package angel hair pasta
½ cup sesame oil
½ cup soy sauce
¼ cup balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon hot chili oil
¼ cup white sugar
1 teaspoon sesame seeds, or more if desired
1 green onion, chopped
1 red bell pepper, diced

Steps:

  • Fill a large pot with lightly salted water and bring to a rolling boil over high heat. Once the water is boiling, stir in the angel hair pasta, and return to a boil. Cook the pasta uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pasta has cooked through, but is still firm to the bite, 4 to 5 minutes. Drain well in a colander set in the sink.
  • Whisk together the sesame oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, chili oil, and sugar in a large bowl. Toss the pasta in the dressing, then sprinkle with sesame seeds, green onion, and bell pepper. Serve warm, or cover and refrigerate for a cold salad.

SESAME PASTA SALAD

Based on the Sesame Pasta Chicken Salad recipe from Allrecipes. I replaced the chicken in the original recipe with cabbage and use coconut sugar for an extra bit of flavor... this is a hit wherever I take it, especially with my vegan friends! I think this tastes better prepared the day before.
