So these Toasted Sesame Noodles are a little peak inside the book :). These noodles are easy, tasty and addictive! Be sure to eat them with chopsticks to slow you down a bit. Fork= shoveling noodles into my mouth….Haha.
These Toasted Sesame Noodles are a flavor explosion of nutty, buttery, rich goodness! And they are so very, very addictive! The toasted sesame seeds are the highlight of this dish with a rich nutty flavor, and the noodles are saturated with a light flavorful sauce making an amazing flavor combination. Best of all the dish is crazy simple and quick to make. It just takes a few simple ingredients and 15 minutes or less! There is a recipe adaptation for every diet including traditional, gluten-free, grain-free, paleo, pegan and vegan! Everyone can partake in noodle joy!!
When I make these noodles, I actually use zoodles most of the time, you know zucchini noodles made using a spiralizer. (You can find one here– it’s a must have!) Zoodles make an awesome super healthy and grain-free stand-in for noodles. They happily take on whatever flavor you subject them to 🙂 (These pictures were taken with quinoa noodles by Ancient Harvest which make an excellent gluten-free option if you don’t want zoodles.)
I’ve been zoodle crazy at my house cooking up all these noodle recipes! I’ve even tried spiraling carrots and cucumbers, which, I must say, are AWESOME as well! This recipe would also be amazing with chilled cucumber noodles. Just let the sauce cool and toss them in with “cucoodles,” you know- cucumber-noodles. Hehe.
Cricket has even gotten in on all the noodle action. She’ll happily slurps them from her bowl, as long at they are coated in some yummy sauce 🙂 Today I served her up some noodles a la chicken broth and she was smitten! Remember that scene in Lady and the Tramp where the lovebird pups slurp the same noodle over a spaghetti supper? Well, I think Cricket would make the perfect “Lady!” Here we are practicing the scene for her someday debut:

- 1 1/2 teaspoons sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons broth (veggie or chicken)

- 1 1/2 teaspoons sriracha
- 2 teaspoons almond butter (or peanut butter)

- Spiralize your zucchini to make your zoodles and set aside, making about 3 cups. Or boil your gluten-free noodles according to the box’s direction.
- Over medium-high heat, dry roast the sesame seeds until golden. (Alternatively you can add 1/4 t of butter, ghee, or oil of choice to add a bit more flavor to them.)
- In a saucepan over medium-high heat combine the sesame oil, broth, tamari, rice vinegar, sriracha, almond butter, and coconut sugar. Mix thoroughly and let simmer for 30 seconds. (If using toasted sesame oil add it at the end once you remove the sauce from the heat.)
