Steps:
- Heat up a griddle pan on a low heat. Brush the corn with a small amount of oil and place on the preheated griddle pan. Grill, turning every few minutes, until cooked and lightly charred all over. Once cool, shave the kernels off with a sharp knife.
- Bring a pot of water to the boil and cook your soba noodles as per packet instructions. They overcook easily so I tend to err on the side of caution and cook them for a little less, say 4 minutes (even if the packet says 5).
- While the noodles are cooking, prepare a big bowl of cold water. Once the noodles are done, drain them, immediately rinse them under a cold tap and then dump them in a bowl of cold water. It arrests the cooking process and stops the noodles from getting all sticky. Drain and stir a teaspoon of sesame oil through them to keep them nicely separate (skip if not using oil).
- Combine all of the salad ingredients together in a large bowl, drizzle with the dressing and decorate with fresh coriander and sesame seeds.
- If you want to make this salad more substantial, why not add my sesame coated tofu or simple baked tofu.
- Combine miso paste and cashew butter / tahini in a small bowl. Slowly add in all of the wet ingredients stirring the whole time to make sure the dressing has no lumps.
- Season with ginger, garlic, white pepper and chilli if using. If you use cashew butter that is a bit thicker, you may want to add a drop of water (or more orange juice) to achieve the right - pourable yet thick - consistency.

SOBA SALAD
For most people, even experienced cooks, weeknight dinners are not so much a result of careful planning but of what's on hand - and what can be accomplished fairly quickly. Noodles of all kinds are easy and beloved. But soba noodles, a Japanese staple, are special: they usually take no more than 3 to 4 minutes to cook and, because they're made from buckwheat, have a slightly firm texture and a nutty flavor. Traditionally, soba are served hot and cold, making them a flexible partner for almost any fresh ingredients you have in the kitchen. In this case, they are paired with shelled frozen edamame, carrots and spinach and a light dressing.

SOBA SALAD WITH MISO DRESSING
Superfast veggie dinner or side dish. Courtesy of Mark Bittman, the Minimalist, from the October 1 2009 NY Times. He's not sure whether to call this a warm salad or a room-temperature noodle dish. I love edamame beans, and buying them frozen is fine for this dish. Pick up a bag of pre-washed spinach for this too. Tossing the spinach with the warm noodles and veggies should wilt the spinach, or stir fry them together in a little water to wilt a bit more. Soba noodles are a staple of Japan. They have a slightly firm texture and nutty flavor.

We love it when opposites attract. A sweet-and-sour gingery dressing goes hand in hand with soft soba noodles, edamame and crunchy slaw. Add grilled shrimp or chicken for a protein-packed finish. -Mandy Rivers, Lexington, South Carolina
