Sesame Noodles with Shredded Vegetables Recipe

Use rice vinegar, not the sweeter “seasoned” rice vinegar. Look for dried Udon noodles and fiery red chile oil in the Asian aisle of your market.

Ingredients
6 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
3 tablespoons tahini (sesame seed paste) or creamy peanut buter
2 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice vinegar
2 teaspoons minced peeled fresh ginger
1˝ teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon chile oil
1 large carrot, peeled and coarsely grated
1 large cucumber, peeled, seeded and chopped
1˝ cups chopped red bell pepper (about 1 large pepper)
1 (10-ounce) package dried udon noodles or whole-wheat spaghetti, cooked, drained and rinsed in cool water
4 green onions, thinly sliced


Instructions
1. Whisk sesame oil and next 6 ingredients (sesame oil through chile oil) in a large bowl.
2. Add remaining ingredients; toss well to coat. Cover and refrigerate up to 3 days. Serves 8.
