COLD ORIENTAL NOODLE SALAD PANCIT CANTON
In my quest to add more oriental recipes, I ran across a few recipes for a cold noodle salad. I had several gatherings to attend so decided to make some. Since it does not have to be warmed up or kept cold, it is perfect for a picnic. Oriental flavors blended to perfection! I took Corinne Trangs recipe and gave it my own touches. Super simple and very flavorful! It is WELL worth ordering the canton pancit noodles pictured, but Ramen noodles will work in a pinch. Also, if tahini paste is not available, peanut butter will work. Both of these changes will effect the taste however.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of water to boil. Boil noodles until cooked. (about 4 minutes for the canton noodles. (You could even use ramen noodles, cook about 3 minutes) Do not over cook the noodles! Rinse immediately with cold water to stop the cooking process. Get the noodles cold! Put aside.
- Mix all sauce ingredients together. Combine noodles and sauce and toss very well to coat all noodles. They will absorb the sauce.
- Now add any vegetable to your liking. I like cucumber,carrot,pea pods and chives. But really, anything will work! Top with sesame seeds ( I used plum sesame seeds, but any will do)
- This stays so well on the buffet table! Lasts the whole party long. And it is something different to bring to your next gathering. Inexpensive as well, and serves quite a few! Left overs are great the next day. I didnt have leftovers, so I whipped up a batch for home and the next day it is still wonderful.

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.

Steps:
- Cook noodles in boiling water for 2 to 4 minutes, testing frequently so they don't overcook. Drain well and toss with sesame oil. Cover and refrigerate up to 2 days ahead.
- Combine remaining ingredients except green onion and mix well. (Sesame paste often separates and can be difficult to recombine. Paste and some oil can be processed in food processor with steel knife. Add garlic and ginger, and while paste is being blended, garlic and ginger will be finely minced.) Refrigerate for up to a week. Before serving, return to room temperature.
- To serve, mix sauce with noodles and serve topped with green onion.
