Thai Noodle Salad with Tahini Tom Kha Dressing
 

For the sauce:

  • Add 1/3 cup tahini

  • 2 tablespoons honey

  • 1-2 tablespoons grated ginger

  • Zest of one lime

  • 1 garlic clove 

  • 2 tablespoons Tom Kha shrub (or shrub of your choice)

  • 2 tablespoons fish sauce or soy sauce

  • Juice from 1/2 lime

For salad:

  • 1 package of rice noodles (wide)

  • 2 cups of edamame shelled

  • 1 cup purple cabbage shredded

  • 1 cup carrot ribbons

  • 1 bell pepper sliced thin

  • 2 green onions

  • 1/4 cup of cilantro

  • 1/4 cup of basil

In a small mixing bowl combine tahini, honey, fish sauce, shrub, ginger, garlic, lime zest and lime juice. Mix really well. Set aside.

Cook rice noodles according to package instructions. In the final minute of cook time toss in your edamame if they are frozen. Strain altogether and run under cold water. Leave noodles and edamame in a bowl of cold water to prevent them from getting too sticky.

Mix shredded carrots, cabbage, pepper, and herbs in a large mixing bowl. Add in the noodles and the sauce. Toss to combine. Your hands might be your best tool in accomplishing this. Adjust with salt and pepper if needed.
