Yield Serves 2

Number Of Ingredients 17

For the dashi:
3 dried anchovies or 3 tablespoons dried bonito flakes
1 small piece konbu (dried kelp), wiped lightly with a dry cloth
1 garlic clove, peeled
For the dipping sauce:
3 tablespoons gochujang (Korean hot pepper paste)
2 tablespoons finely grated cucumber
2 tablespoons finely grated daikon radish
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1 tablespoon finely grated ginger
1 tablespoon low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
For the noodles and assembly:
1 (7-ounce) package green tea soba noodles
1/2 medium cucumber, cut into matchsticks
Thai or regular basil leaves (for serving)

Steps:

  • Make the dashi:
  • Bring anchovies, konbu, garlic, and 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a medium pot over medium-high, stirring occasionally. Reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook 7 minutes. Pour mixture through a fine-mesh sieve set over a large bowl; discard solids.
  • Make the dipping sauce:
  • Whisk gochujang, cucumber, radish, lime juice, ginger, soy sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and 1 cup dashi in a medium bowl until well combined. Chill until cold.
  • To serve:
  • Cook soba noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water, stirring occasionally, until noodles are cooked through but still chewy, 4-6 minutes. Drain and rinse with cold water immediately to stop the cooking process.
  • Divide noodles among 2 plates or bowls. Garnish with cucumber matchsticks and Thai basil leaves. Serve with dipping sauce on the side.
  • Do Ahead
  • Dashi can be made up to 3 days in advance and refrigerated.

Tips:

  • Mise en place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients and equipment ready. This will help you stay organized and prevent any delays.
  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh ingredients will give your salad the best flavor and texture. If possible, buy your ingredients from a local farmer's market or organic grocery store.
  • Cook the chicken properly: Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can check the chicken's temperature with a meat thermometer.
  • Don't overcook the noodles: Noodles should be cooked al dente, meaning they should be tender but still have a slight bite to them.
  • Use a flavorful dressing: The dressing is what will bring all the flavors of the salad together. Make sure you use a dressing that you enjoy and that complements the other ingredients in the salad.
  • Assemble the salad just before serving: This will help prevent the noodles from becoming soggy.
  • Garnish the salad with fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will add a pop of color and flavor to your salad.

Conclusion:

This soy chicken and green tea noodle salad is a delicious and healthy dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The salad is packed with flavor, thanks to the combination of soy sauce, sesame oil, ginger, and garlic. The green tea noodles add a unique flavor and texture to the salad.
