Yum. DH was less enthused and thought it lacked something. Maybe some lightly steamed broccoli or bean sprouts next time. Very easy to prepare and very pretty on the plate.
Soba Noodle Salad
Look for soba noodles on the Asian food aisle. If you can't find them, you can sub whole-wheat spaghetti (which takes about 10 minutes longer to cook).
This recipe goes with Soy-Marinated Pork Sandwiches, Roasted Salmon with Soy-Marmalade Glaze, Panko-Crusted Cod with Tomato-Basil Relish, Hoisin-Glazed Steak with Sesame Vegetables
