Soba Salad

Soba Salad is based on a PopSugar recipe that had more and healthier ingredients. I cut it down in size and to the available ingredients, and also added a lot of eyeballing, since the dressing seemed excessive.

I made it to go with salmon poke instead of the usual sushi rice accompaniment; it was handy because it could (like sushi rice) sit on the counter while the salmon poke sat in the fridge waiting for dinnertime.

Serves 2, at room temperature.

Ingredients

• 2 rolls of soba noodles
• 2 T. vegetable oil
• 1 T. toasted sesame oil
• 2 T. brown sugar
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 1 cube frozen minced ginger
• 1 cube frozen chopped cilantro
• garlic powder
• mirin
• soy sauce
• handful toasted sesame seeds
• 2 scallions, sliced into rings

Directions

1. Cook soba according to package directions and rinse with cold water.
2. Meanwhile, mix all liquid, spicy, and frozen ingredients.
3. Toss it all together.
