Vegan Sesame Noodles

Ingredients

• 1 lb Spaghetti noodles
• 0.5 cup Tahini
• 3 tablespoons Rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons Maple syrup
• 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
• 1 teaspoon Ginger (minced)
• 0.25 teaspoon Red pepper flakes
• 1 tablespoon Sesame oil
• 0.25 cup Water
• 2 whole Scallions (chopped)

Instructions

1. 1Fill a large pot with water and bring it to a rolling boil over high heat. Add the 1 lb of spaghetti noodles to the boiling water and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, or until the noodles are tender but still have a slight bite. Drain the noodles immediately and rinse them thoroughly with cold water to stop the cooking process and prevent them from sticking together.
2. 2While the noodles are cooking, prepare the sauce. In a large bowl, combine the 0.5 cup of tahini, 3 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 2 tablespoons of maple syrup, 2 cloves of minced garlic, 1 teaspoon of minced ginger, 0.25 teaspoon of red pepper flakes, 1 tablespoon of sesame oil, and 0.25 cup of water.
3. 3Whisk all the sauce ingredients together vigorously until the mixture is completely smooth and well combined. If the sauce seems too thick, add a tiny bit more water, one teaspoon at a time, until it reaches a pourable consistency.
4. 4Add the drained and rinsed 1 lb of spaghetti noodles directly into the large bowl with the prepared sauce.
5. 5Using tongs or two forks, toss the noodles gently but thoroughly to ensure every strand is evenly coated with the flavorful sesame sauce.
6. 6Divide the coated noodles among four serving bowls. Garnish each serving with the 2 whole chopped scallions.
7. 7Serve the vegan sesame noodles immediately, either cold or at room temperature.
