COLD PEANUT SOBA NOODLES

Cold Peanut Soba Noodles image

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.

Ingredients

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)

Steps:

Combine sauce ingredients thoroughly.
Toss cooked soba noodles (or spaghetti) with vegetables.
Add sauce and combine to coat everything.
(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.
