How to Make Spicy Sesame Noodles
- Cook 1 pound of pasta (fusilli or gemelli recommended) according to package directions until al dente. Reserve about 1/2 cup of pasta water before draining.
- While the pasta cooks, whisk together in a medium bowl: 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup tahini, 1/4 cup water, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, 2 tablespoons rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach desired consistency.
- Add the drained pasta to the sauce and toss to coat. Add a little reserved pasta water if needed to loosen the sauce.
- Garnish with 2 tablespoons chopped scallions (optional) and 1 tablespoon sesame seeds (optional).
- Serve immediately, hot or at room temperature. Enjoy!
