How to Make Sesame Noodles With Peanut Sauce
- Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and rinse under cold water to cool completely. Set aside.

- Process until completely smooth, scraping down the sides as needed. Taste and adjust seasonings as desired.
- Transfer the sauce to a bowl and let it stand at room temperature for at least 1 hour (or up to 2 hours) to allow the flavors to meld.
- Add the cooked spaghetti to a large bowl.
- Pour the peanut sauce over the noodles and toss gently to coat evenly.
- Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds (if using).
