cooking instructions

Soba noodles, a lovely, light, whole grain buckwheat noodle, are

The Asian-style sauce is perfect. This sauce has a nice blend of fresh
ginger, toasted sesame oil, and lemon juice. It has a sweetness
that actually enhances the ginger and sesame flavors and makes
people want to scrape the bowl you mixed it in. Add sautéed
vegetables and tofu, or mock duck or chicken, for a delightful,
light, and flavorful meal.
Cook the soba noodles as instructed on the package. These
noodles cook quickly and can become sticky if overcooked, so
drain them immediately when cooked and cool them under
cold water. Set aside.
In a large skillet, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium heat
and sauté the vegetables. Set them aside.
Chop the ginger in a food processor, then add the miso,
maple syrup, sesame oil, tahini, and salt, and puree, slowly
adding the juice and water to the running machine until
the sauce reaches the desired consistency. In a large bowl,
combine the noodles and vegetables with the sauce
