Oh, please. Don't tell us you're surprised to see crazy-high nutritionals associated with cold sesame noodles. Pasta plus peanut butter plus sesame oil (and seeds!) pretty much says it all. But they do taste really goooood. Rumor has it, this dish was created by a peanut farmer who accidentally spilled soy sauce on his spaghetti. In a desperate attempt to mask the saltiness of his family's dinner, he quickly stirred in spoonfuls of peanut butter. Turns out they loved it. OK, that was completely made up (and really dumb -- but there's little-to-no info available about the history of these irresistible things!). Distracting you with silly, made-up stories isn't what we're here to do. We're here to deliver a fantabulous recipe for SLAMMIN' cold sesame noodles with a tiny fraction of the calories of the regular version. That's it. So, we'll stop yapping now and let you head to the kitchen to whip up a batch of our Crazy-Good Cold Sesame Noodles. Remember to report back to us and tell us what you think. We'll be waiting... |
