There's nothing yummier than Chinese take out we found
a great way to still enjoy the authentic taste of this dish a
bit more often, without the guilt. This recipe does just the
trick, with less than half the fat of the original!




- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 4 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
- 3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 1/4 cup tahini (sesame paste), well-stirred
- 1 cup White Puree (see Make-Ahead Recipe #4)
- 1/4 cup rice wine vinegar or cider vinegar
- 2 to 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon dried red pepper flakes, to taste
- 1 pound Asian noodles or thin spaghetti, ideally whole
wheat, freshly cooked
- Optional extra boost: 3 green onions, thinly sliced; 2
tablespoons toasted sesame seeds; and/or sliced
cucumber strips

> In a medium-size bowl, whisk together the brown sugar,
sesame oil, soy sauce, tahini, White Puree, vinegar, and
garlic. Add red pepper flakes to taste.

> Put the pasta in a large serving bowl. Spoon the sauce
over the pasta, tossing to coat the pasta evenly. Garnish
with sliced green onions, cucumber, and sesame seeds, if
using. Refrigerate until cool, or feel free to serve it warm.
