Ingredients(8)

Dried soba noodles0.8 oz (56 g)
White miso paste3.1 tbsp (18 g)
Toasted sesame oil0.3 tsp (4.7 g)
Rice vinegar4.4 tsp (5 g)
Soy sauce or tamari3.1 tsp (5 g)
Scallions, thinly sliced (white and light green parts only)8.7 stalks (30 g)
Neutral oil (like grapeseed or canola)0.3 tsp (4.7 g)
Toasted sesame seeds, for garnish0.3 tsp (2 g)

Instructions

1

Cook the soba noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain well and rinse under cold water to stop the cooking process and remove excess starch. Set aside.

2

While the noodles cook, prepare the dressing: In a small bowl, whisk together the white miso paste, toasted sesame oil, rice vinegar, and soy sauce until smooth. If the dressing is too thick, add a teaspoon of water to loosen it.

3

Heat the neutral oil in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced scallions and cook, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and crisp, about 3-4 minutes. Be careful not to burn them. Drain the crispy scallions on a paper towel-lined plate.

4

In a medium bowl, combine the cooked soba noodles with the miso-sesame dressing. Toss gently to coat the noodles evenly.

5

To serve, divide the dressed noodles into a small serving bowl. Top generously with the crispy scallions and a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately.
