Vegetable soba noodle salad recipe

Easy to pull together for lunch or dinner, this salad is the perfect contrast of bold garlic and ginger, earthy buckwheat noodles and zingy dressing. To make the dish even more substantial, you can add marinated and baked tofu cubes or extra steamed vegetables.

Step-by-step

  1. To make the salad, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil over high heat. Add the soba noodles, then adjust the heat to maintain a low boil.
  2. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the noodles are just softening to al dente. Add the edamame and boil for another 2 minutes. Drain and rinse under cold running water.
  3. Put the carrots, cabbage, scallions, and cilantro in a large bowl.
  4. To make the dressing, combine all the ingredients in a small bowl and whisk until well blended.
  5. To assemble the salad, add the soba and edamame to the vegetables and toss gently. Then pour in the dressing and toss again until well combined. Taste and adjust the seasonings if desired. Serve at room temperature, with toppings of choice.
