Ingredients
- 8 oz soba noodles
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter approximately 3 oz
- 1 tablespoon peanut oil
- 1/4 cup soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon seasoned rice vinegar
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1 teaspoon Chili garlic sauce
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 cup salted peanuts chopped
- 1/3 cup green onions diced
- 1/4 cup fresh cilantro minced
Instructions
- Add a large pot of unsalted water to stovetop and heat on high to bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, in a medium to large sized bowl, add peanut butter, honey, soy, peanut oil, rice vinegar, lime juice, chili garlic sauce, ground ginger, and garlic powder. MIx well into a creamy thick sauce.
- Once the sauce is made and water is boiling, add the soba noodles and let boil for 3 1/2 minutes.
- Drain noodles, give just one shake in the colander and then immediately add them to the sauce - a little bit of the cooking liquid will help loosen the sauce a bit and help coat the noodles with the sauce.
- Mix well with tongs ensuring that all of the noodles are coated in the peanut sauce.
- Top with peanuts, green onions, and cilantro. Add sriracha if desired. Serve hot or cold.
Notes
- Cooking the Noodles
- Cooking the Noodles
- While most soba noodles take only about 4 minutes to cook, we've found with this recipe the perfect time is 3 minutes 30 seconds. This ensures that you won't have mushy overcooked noodles.
- Be sure to drain the noodles but don't let them sit. Add them immediately to the peanut sauce. Some of the starchy cooking water will also help loosen the sauce a little and allow the sauce to stick better to the noodles.
- Substitutions
- Substitutions
- Soba Noodles - Use your favorite noodles or pasta, but we don't recommend vermicelli or thin rice noodle, or angel hair pasta because they're a little too thin/delicate a noodle for this creamy hearty sauce. Whatever noodle you use, be sure to follow the cooking recommendations for each noodle/pasta as they will vary.
- Rice Vinegar - Be sure to use seasoned because it has much more flavor necessary for this sauce.
- seasoned
- Honey - You can also use maple syrup or 1 tablespoon of brown sugar.
- Garlic and Ginger - for the 1/4 teaspoon of ground, you can use 1 scant teaspoon of minced fresh for each.
- Chili Garlic Sauce - Omit, or increase for a little more kick!
- Sriracha - Finish with for a little added heat!
