Ingredients
Black Sesame Noodle Bowl
- 8-oz. Eden Foods Buckwheat Soba Noodles
- 1 batch Roasted Vegetables (recipe below)
- 1 batch Black Sesame Butter Sauce (recipe below)
Roasted Vegetables
- 1–2 TBSP avocado oil
- 3 medium sweet potatoes, scrubbed, peeled, and diced into 1” cubes
- 1 12-oz. bag brussels sprouts, trimmed and halved
- Pinch of Himalayan sea salt
Black Sesame Butter Sauce
- 1/3 cup Eden Foods Black Sesame Butter
- 1 TBSP Tamari Lite
- 1/2 TBSP maple syrup
- 1 tsp chili garlic sauce
- 1 TBSP lime juice
- ~1/4 cup filtered water + more as needed
For serving
- sesame seeds
- cilantro
- Pan-fried or baked tofu (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F and line the baking sheet with parchment paper. Add the diced sweet potato and halved brussels sprouts to a large mixing bowl and drizzle with 1-2 TBSP avocado oil and a pinch of sea salt. Toss with a spatula until they’re well coated. Transfer the vegetables to the sheet pan and spread them into a thin layer so none are touching. Bake the sweet potato and brussels sprouts until they are fork tender and start to char on the sides, roughly 30-35 minutes. Stir vegetables at the half way point.
- Cook the soba noodles in a pot of boiling water according to package instructions. Drain them in a colander and set aside.
- While the noodles are cooking, make the Black Sesame Butter sauce. Add the Black Sesame Butter, Tamari Lite, maple syrup, garlic sauce, lime juice, and filtered water to a bowl or jar. Whisk vigorously with a fork (or shake if using a jar) until the sauce is well combined and creamy. Add a little more filtered water as needed to achieve a pourable consistency.
- To serve, add the soba noodles to a bowl and top with baked vegetables and Black Sesame Butter sauce. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and chopped cilantro and enjoy immediately!
- Store leftover sauce, noodles, and vegetables separately in airtight containers in the refrigerator and reheat together in the microwave before serving.
