I’ve been cooking but actually haven’t tried soba noodles and sesame on it, but I think the very clear presentation and beautiful finished dish is worth a try! And the vegetables, they are a MUST do and eat! Gorgeous. Thank you.

I made this this past week and liked it a lot. I only made half of the sauce and it was perfect. I did add more veggies…

I agree with Peggy in Kansas that the dressing was overpowered by the soy sauce ( I used tamari ). I would take her suggestion and half the amount of soy sauce or tamari and add some sugar as well as some lime juice. Also, 1 pound of pasta was entirely too much pasta for the amount of vegetables called for. The photo depicts a ratio of approximately 50/50 pasta to veggies. To achieve this, only cook a half pound of pasta and then add the dressing to taste.
Boy, were those edamame a delicious addition!

OMG This was delicious! If you are using Soba noodles, make sure you rinse them really well in cold water as soon as they are cooked.
Thanks for the recipe- I have a feeling I will be using it a lot!

I love these kinds of dishes. I made it directed but found that the taste of soy sauce overshadowed everything, and made it some what difficult to enjoy. So I added some brown sugar. Much better!

When I make this recipe again, I will include brown suger in the dressing, I’ll cut back on the soy sauce (probably to a 1/4 cup) and slightly increase the sesame oil so that taste will be more pronounced.

Delicious, healthy and beautiful! Made this for dinner last night, and threw in a handful of shredded rotisserie chicken. Will be adding to our regular dinner rotation. I think it would be interesting to put a thai spin to the dressing by adding peanut butter and sweet chili sauce. Might lose a little in the healthy category, but a couple of tablespoons of peanut butter in a pound of pasta plus veggies… not too many more calories? Is it? One can only hope. Lol.
