Cold Soba Noodles with Chili Dipping Sauce

The Italian chili paste veers this recipe away from the traditional, so use Sriracha if it's authenticity you crave. Us? We just wanted spicy noodles!

Ingredients

7 ounces Soba Noodles

1 cup chicken stock

3 Tbs. Shoyu

1 Tbs. honey

2 Tbs. chili paste

chopped scallions and cilantro

Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the noodles to the water and immediately stir gently. When the water returns to a boil, stir again and cook for 4 - 6 minutes. Turn off the heat and let the noodles sit for 2 minutes in the hot water. Drain into a colander and rinse under cold water until cool.

Meanwhile, heat the stock, shoyu, honey and chili paste in a small saucepan until simmering. Turn off and let cool slightly.

Serve the noodles with the sauce on the side, garnished with chopped scallions.
