Not any longer! I work here now and I can prove it! I can even back it up with a little information about what I'm working on. I can spew fancy chemistry and pharmaceutical words and sound like a professional. But don't let the business cards and fancy language fool you! I'm still feeling my way around my new job.
Spicy Sesame Noodles
Adapted from Williams Sonoma - New York
One Year Ago: Chorizo & Vegetable Soup
1 bag of broad egg noodles
4 tbsp sesame oil
3/4 cup creamy peanut butter (like Jif)
2 tsp tahini
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1 tbsp siracha sauce
1/2 jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped into big pieces
1 tbsp ginger, peeled and chopped into big pieces
1 clove garlic, peeled
2 tbsp sugar
1/2 tsp white pepper
1 cup low-sodium chicken stock
1 english (seedless) cucumber, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
3 carrots, peeled and cut into 2-inch matchsticks
2 green onions, green parts thinly sliced
Bring a big pot of water to a boil, add salt. Add egg noodles and boil for about 10 minutes. While they are cooking, prepare the sauce.
In a food processor, combine all ingredients for the sauce except chicken broth. Pulse to combine everything. Once it's all in a big peanutty paste, add chicken stock. Scrape the sides if necessary to combine all of the peanut butter.
Drain the noodles and return to the pot. Add sauce and chopped vegetables. Stir to combine and dish out the bowls!
