Ingredients:

Sesame Dressing :

- ¼ cup rice vinegar

- 2 tablespoons tamari, more for serving

- ½ teaspoon toasted sesame oil

- 1 teaspoon grated ginger

- 1 garlic clove, grated

- ½ teaspoon maple syrup or honey

For the Soba Noodles :

- 6 ounces soba noodles

- Sesame oil, for drizzling

- 2 avocados, sliced

- Squeezes of lemon

- 2 cups blanched snap peas

- ¼ cup edamame

- 1 watermelon radish or 2 red radishes, very thinly sliced

- 1/4 cup fresh mint leaves

- Sesame seeds

Method : In a small bowl, combine the vinegar, tamari, vegetable oil , ginger, garlic, and honey. Set aside. Bring an unsalted pot of water to a boil and cook the soba noodles consistent with package directions. Drain and rinse well in cold water. This helps to get rid of starches that cause clumping. Toss the noodles with the dressing and divide into 2 to 4 bowls. Squeeze fresh juice onto the avocado slices and increase the bowls along with the snap peas, edamame, radish, mint, and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Drizzle with more tamari or vegetable oil , if desired.
