How to Make Asian Sesame Noodle Salad With Peanut Dressing Vegetarian
- Cook 8 ounces of pasta (such as spaghetti, soba, or rice noodles) in a large pot of boiling salted water according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water. Toss with 2 tablespoons vegetable oil to prevent sticking.
- While the pasta cooks, prepare the dressing: In a blender, combine 1/4 cup peanut butter, 2 tablespoons soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free), 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon honey or maple syrup, 1 clove garlic (minced), and 1/4 cup water. Blend until completely smooth. Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to reach desired consistency.
- Chop 1 red bell pepper and 2 green onions.
- In a large bowl, combine the cooked pasta, red bell pepper, and green onions.
- Just before serving, pour the peanut dressing over the noodles and vegetables.
- Add 2 tablespoons toasted sesame seeds.
- Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
- Garnish with extra chopped green onions, if desired, and serve immediately.
