Sauce
Salad
Directions
In a small mixing bowl, whisk together the Marcona Almond Spread, lime juice, maple syrup, sesame oil, soy sauce, hot sauce and ground ginger until it forms a thick and creamy paste. Add the boiling water and stir, it will look like it is separated, but keep stirring and it will loosen to a luscious creamy sauce.
2 radishes
Slice the bell peppers into julienned strips, slice the radishes into thin rounds, and slice the green onions on a bias.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and cook the package of soba noodles according to package directions. Rinse in cold water and place in a large mixing bowl. Pour in half the dressing and toss the noodles generously so they are well coated. Divide into serving bowls and top with strips of bell peppers, radish rounds, green onions, shredded cabbage and edamame. Drizzle with remaining sauce or serve on the side. Garnish with black sesame seeds and serve immediately.
Recipe Note
Soba noodles don’t keep well so are best enjoyed as soon as they are made. The Marcona
Almond sauce will keep in the fridge in an airtight container for up to one week.
