Noodles in Sesame-Soy Sauce
Use dark, or Asian, rather than
light sesame oil to make this
Chinese restaurant favorite. Its intense flavor allows you to use just a little.
Makes 6 servings
Ingredients:
2 tbsp reduced-sodium soy sauce
1 tbsp Asian sesame oil
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp white-wine vinegar
4 cucumbers, peeled and julienned
3 cups hot cooked vermicelli or rice noodles
6 scallions (green part only), chopped
To prepare the sauce, in a small
bowl, combine the soy sauce, oil, sugar and
vinegar. In a large bowl, combine the cucumbers, vermicelli and the sauce;
toss to coat. Transfer to a platter; sprinkle with the scallions.
