A refreshing and satisfying cold noodle dish with fresh tomatoes, creamy peanut butter, and a spicy kick, perfect for a warm day.
Main Ingredients
- 8–9 oz. - dried udon noodles or spaghetti
- as needed - vegetable oil
- 12 oz. - ripe beefsteak or heirloom tomatoes
- ⅓ cup - creamy peanut butter
- ¼ cup - apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup - chili crisp
- 3 Tbsp. - soy sauce
- 4 tsp. - sugar
- 4 oz. - cherry tomatoes
- ⅓ cup - salted roasted peanuts, preferably cocktail
- ⅓ cup - store-bought fried shallots
- as needed - scallions, thinly sliced
- as needed - cilantro, coarsely chopped
- Step 1 Start by boiling a medium pot of salted water. Throw in 8–9 oz. of dried udon noodles or spaghetti and cook them for 1 minute longer than the package says. Drain them in a colander, rinse under cool water, and drizzle about a teaspoon of vegetable oil to keep them from sticking. Set them aside.
- Step 2 Grab your 12 oz. of ripe beefsteak or heirloom tomatoes. Cut a thin slice off the bottom, and then grate them over a bowl using the largest holes on your box grater. Toss the leftover skin and stem. Now, whisk in ⅓ cup creamy peanut butter, ¼ cup apple cider vinegar, ¼ cup chili crisp, 3 Tbsp. soy sauce, and 4 tsp. sugar until the sauce looks smooth and well-mixed.
- Step 3 Slice 4 oz. of cherry tomatoes in halves or quarters if they’re big. Add these tomatoes and the cooked noodles to the bowl with the sauce, tossing until everything is nicely coated.
- Step 4 Lay out your noodles on a platter and top them off with ⅓ cup salted roasted peanuts, preferably cocktail type, and ⅓ cup store-bought fried shallots. Finish it off with a scatter of thinly sliced scallions and some coarsely chopped cilantro. Enjoy!
