Chilled Peanut Soba Noodles


Kosher salt

8 ounces soba (buckwheat) noodles

1/4 cup natural crunchy peanut butter

1/4 cup seasoned rice vinegar

1 tablespoon soy sauce

2 to 3 teaspoons chili sauce (recommended: Sriracha)

Bring a large pot of water to a boil; over high heat. Add a generous amount of salt and stir in the noodles. Cook according to package instructions; drain and rinse well under cold running water.

Meanwhile, whisk the peanut butter, vinegar, soy sauce and chili sauce in a large bowl until smooth. Add the drained noodles, and with tongs, toss until coated with the dressing. Serve immediately or chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours.

Note: If chilling noodles, toss with 1 to 2 tablespoons water to loosen them before serving.
