How to Make Sesame Udon Noodles
- In a jar with a tight-fitting lid, whisk together the minced garlic, grated ginger, soy sauce, rice vinegar, peanut oil, sesame oil, and hot pepper sauce.
- Secure the lid and shake vigorously to thoroughly combine the dressing.
- Set aside to allow the flavors to meld for at least 5 minutes.
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
- Add the udon noodles and cook according to package directions, usually about 3-5 minutes, until tender but still slightly firm.
- Drain the noodles well and transfer them to a large serving bowl.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, combine the sliced bell peppers, green onions, and frozen peas.
- Microwave on high for 1-2 minutes, or until the vegetables are heated through but still crisp-tender. Stir halfway through.
- Add the heated vegetables to the noodles in the serving bowl.
- Pour the prepared sesame dressing over the noodles and vegetables.
- Toss gently to coat everything evenly.
- Toast sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat for 2-3 minutes, shaking or stirring frequently, until lightly browned and fragrant.
- Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds over the noodles and serve immediately.
