Peanut Sesame Noodles image

The secret to this Chinese favorite is not to let the noodles sit in the sauce very long - toss them together a few seconds before serving. COOKS NOTES: Think about adding julienned carrots and cucumber. You may also like to add a bit more vinegar, sesame oil,garlic and soy sauce for tang! Great leftovers too!!

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I substituted almond butter in the sauce. It turned out great!

Meh. I wasn't impressed. The noodles were bland and the sauce was too runny.

The sauce was a bit too sweet for my taste, but overall the dish was good. I'll try it again with less sugar next time.

Delicious and easy to make. I used whole wheat noodles and added some chopped peanuts for extra crunch.
