PEANUT SOBA NOODLE SALAD
Steps:
- For the soba noodle salad: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Cook the soba noodles until just tender according to package directions, 6 to 7 minutes. Reserving 1/4 cup of the cooking water, drain and run the noodles under cool water to stop cooking and ensure they stay firm. Drizzle with a little sesame oil and toss so they don't stick together. Set aside.
- For the peanut dressing: Place the sesame oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and ginger and lightly saute (take care to not overheat as the sesame oil burns easily). You just want to gently warm and infuse the oil to cook the garlic and ginger, about 2 minutes. Add to a blender with the peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, Sriracha and reserved soba cooking water (hot). Blend until completely smooth. Taste and season with salt and pepper. Mix together the carrots and scallions with the noodles in a large mixing bowl. Dress with the peanut dressing then serve garnished with the chopped roasted peanuts.

- Heat canola oil in a saucepan over medium heat; add onion, garlic, and ginger. Cook and stir until onions are translucent, 3 to 4 minutes. Add carrots, red bell pepper, and half the scallions to the pan; cook and stir to desired tenderness, 3 to 5 minutes.

SOBA NOODLES WITH EDAMAME AND PEANUTS
Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Toss in the soba and swish them around with a pair of tongs so they don't stick together. Cook the noodles until they are soft, 5 to 6 minutes. Strain through a colander and immediately rinse with cold water. Transfer to a bowl and toss with the sesame oil.
- Coat a large straight-sided saute pan with peanut oil and toss in the garlic, ginger and jalapeno. Bring the pan to a medium heat and cook the garlic and ginger for 1 to 2 minutes. Toss in the carrots and 1/4 cup water and cook until the water has evaporated. Toss in the mushrooms and cook until the mushrooms have softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Sprinkle in the edamame and scallions.
- Add the soy, rice wine vinegar and 2 tablespoons water. Toss in the cooked soba, stir to combine and cook until the noodles are hot and the water has evaporated.
- Transfer to a serving dish and sprinkle with the peanuts.
Tips:
- Use fresh soba noodles. Fresh soba noodles have a more delicate flavor and texture than dried noodles. If you can't find fresh soba noodles, you can use dried soba noodles, but be sure to cook them according to the package directions.
- Make the peanut sauce in advance. The peanut sauce can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This will save you time when you're ready to assemble the dish.
- Use a variety of vegetables. The vegetables in this dish can be varied depending on what you have on hand. Some good options include broccoli, carrots, snow peas, and bell peppers.
- Don't overcook the vegetables. The vegetables should be cooked until they are tender-crisp. Overcooked vegetables will be mushy and bland.
- Garnish the dish with fresh herbs. Fresh herbs, such as cilantro or basil, will add a pop of color and flavor to the dish.
Conclusion:
This peanut soba noodle dish is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a quick and easy weeknight dinner. The peanut sauce is creamy and flavorful, and the vegetables add a nice crunch. This dish is also a good source of protein and fiber. If you're looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy soba noodles, this recipe is definitely worth trying.
