Steps:
- Cook pasta according to package directions; drain and set aside.
- Process 1/2 cup peanuts, orange juice and next 6 ingredients in a blender until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides.
- Combine pasta, half of dressing, remaining 1/2 cup peanuts, radishes and the next 3 ingredients, gently tossing to coat. Cover and chill 30 minutes. Serve with remaining dressing and avocado slices.
Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: Fresh vegetables, flavorful dressing, and crunchy peanuts will make all the difference in this salad.
- Cook the pasta al dente: This means cooking it until it is just tender but still has a slight bite to it. Overcooked pasta will be mushy and unpleasant.
- Chop the vegetables into uniform pieces: This will help them cook evenly and look more appealing in the salad.
- Make the dressing ahead of time: This will allow the flavors to meld together and develop. You can store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to a week.
- Assemble the salad just before serving: This will prevent the vegetables from becoming soggy.
- Garnish the salad with fresh herbs and peanuts: This will add a pop of color and flavor.
Conclusion:
Asian peanut and pasta salad is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer picnic or potluck. It is also a great way to use up leftover pasta. With its sweet, savory, and crunchy flavors, this salad is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
