  • 3 tablespoons natural peanut butter
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons honey

Method
 

Cooking Instructions
  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the noodles and cook following package instructions. Drain into a colander set in the sink, then rinse with cold running water until cool to the touch. Drain well.
  2. Transfer noodles into a medium bowl and toss them with 1 tablespoon sesame oil so that they don?t stick to each other. Cover with plastic wrap and place them in the fridge to keep cool while you prepare the sauce.
  3. In a small bowl, add the remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil, peanut butter, soy sauce, honey, rice vinegar, and garlic. Whisk with a fork until combined and smooth.
  4. Scrape the peanut sesame sauce on the cold noodles and toss to combine. Garnish with sesame seeds and green onions, if desired.
