Sesame Noodles with Edamame and Kale

Ingredients:

For the sauce:

• 1 2 inch piece of fresh ginger, peeled
• 4 cloves garlic
• 2 tablespoons agave (or brown sugar)
• 1/3 cup peanut butter
• 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
• 2 tablespoons low sodium soy sauce
• 1 teaspoon Sriracha (or any chili pepper sauce, adjust heat to your liking)
• 2 tablespoons oil (peanut or canola oil)
• 2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
• 1 cup reserved cooked pasta water

For the meal:

• 1 12 oz package soba noodles (I used Annie Chun's - if you don't have or want soba, substitute any spaghetti or thin noodle)
• 2 cups thinly sliced lacinato kale
• 1 1/2 cups shelled edamame
• sesame seeds, lightly toasted if desired

Directions:

1. To make the sauce, combine all ingredients (except water) in a blender or food processor. Process until smooth. Set aside.
2. Prepare your noodles. When ready, reserve 1 cup of pasta water and set aside to cool slightly. Place thinly sliced kale and edamame in a large colander in your sink. Pour pasta and water into colander. Doing this will wilt and "cook" the kale and edamame just enough for your noodles.
3. Add the slightly cooled reserved pasta water to the sesame sauce and process until smooth. Place noodles, kale and edamame back into pot or into a large bowl and pour sesame sauce over noodles. Gently toss to combine. Taste for salt and pepper and adjust if necessary.
4. Serve at room temperature or chilled the next day.

Notes: The original recipe makes enough sauce for a 16oz package of pasta. I found myself with a little extra sauce for this recipe.
