Spicy Cold Soba Noodles image

These cold soba noodles are my son's favorite snack! You can adjust the amount of heat by increasing or omitting the chili oil. A great side dish or add tofu, chicken, or shrimp for a complete meal.

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 9

⅔ cup soy sauce
2 tablespoons molasses
½ cup sesame oil
½ cup sesame tahini
6 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 tablespoons chili oil, or more to taste
½ cup sliced scallions, divided
1 pound dried soba noodles
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Bring soy sauce to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove soy sauce from the heat and stir in molasses.
  • Whisk sesame oil, tahini, balsamic vinegar, and chili oil together in a medium mixing bowl. Slowly whisk in soy sauce mixture. Stir in 1/2 of the scallions.
  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Add soba noodles and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender yet firm to the bite, about 3 minutes. Immediately drain and rinse thoroughly in cold water.
  • Combine noodles and sauce. Sprinkle remaining scallions and sesame seeds over top and refrigerate until cold, at least 30 minutes.
