TAKEOUT-STYLE SESAME NOODLES



Takeout-Style Sesame Noodles image

Noodles dressed with sesame are popular in many parts of China, but this particular style, made with peanut butter and served cold, became a Chinese-American staple in the United States in the 1970s. The family of Shorty Tang - an ambitious restaurateur who emigrated from Sichuan to Taipei to New York - firmly believes that he invented the dish and still serve it at Hwa Yuan, the restaurant he opened in 1967 in Manhattan's Chinatown. They have never divulged the exact recipe; this is our own lush but refreshing version.

Categories     side-dish

Time 25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

12 ounces angel hair pasta
3 tablespoons dark sesame oil
2 tablespoons peanut oil
1-inch piece fresh ginger, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 teaspoon red chili paste, such as sambal
1 lime, juiced
2 tablespoons brown sugar
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
3 tablespoons rice vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
6 tablespoons hot water
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
2 green onions, thinly sliced on the diagonal
Fresh chopped cilantro leaves, for garnish

Steps:

  • Cook the noodles in large pot of boiling unsalted water over medium heat until barely tender and still firm. Drain immediately and rinse with cold water until cold. Drain the noodles really well and transfer to a wide bowl; toss with the sesame oil so they don't stick together. Chill.
  • In a blender combine the peanut oil, ginger, garlic, chili paste, lime juice, brown sugar, peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce, and hot water. Blend. Toss the noodles with the peanut sauce until well coated. Serve at room temperature or chilled; garnish with the sesame seeds, green onions, and cilantro.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh vegetables, herbs, and spices will give your dish the best flavor.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment: There are many different ways to make sesame peanut noodles, so feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to find what you like best.
  • Make sure your sauce is balanced: The sauce should be sweet, salty, and savory, with a bit of heat. If it's too sweet, add a little vinegar or lime juice. If it's too salty, add a little sugar or honey. And if it's too spicy, add a little milk or cream.
  • Cook the noodles al dente: This means cooking them until they are still slightly firm to the bite. This will prevent them from becoming mushy.
  • Serve the noodles immediately: Sesame peanut noodles are best served fresh and hot. They can be reheated, but they will not be as good as when they are first made.

Conclusion:

Sesame peanut noodles are a quick, easy, and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. They are perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual lunch. With a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful and satisfying dish that will leave you wanting more.
