Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

2 cups snow peas

1 pound soba noodles

SAUCE

2 tablespoons white or rice miso

1/3 cup water

2 tablespoons unsweetened apple juice

2 tablespoons dark sesame oil

1/4 cup soy sauce

1 tablespoon fresh ginger root -- peeled and grated

2 tablespoons rice vinegar

2/3 cup scallions -- chopped

 

Bring a large covered pot of water to a rapid boil. Blanch the snow peas,

uncovered, for a minute, until tender but still bright green. Remove the snow

peas with a slotted spoon or a strainer, place them in a large serving bowl, and

set aside. Cook the noodles in the same water until just tender, about 3

minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water, and drain again.

 

While the pasta cooks, prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, dissolve the miso in

the water. Whisk in the apple juice, sesame oil, soy sauce, ginger, and vinegar.

Chop the scallions.

 

In the serving bowl, toss the snow peas, sauce, and scallions with the noodles.
