If you search for sesame noodles, most of the recipes you’ll find are cold noodles with a thick sauce that’s usually more peanutty than sesame. Why is that? We love the flavor of sesame in all forms: from oil to paste to whole seeds, and yet we knew we wanted a hot, saucy stir fry noodle, not something cold and slimy.
The puzzling lack of such a thing is how this recipe was born.

Loosely adapted from our always popular Soy Sauce Noodles recipe, this nutty variation brings a little extra sesame kick in the form of tahini and extra toasted sesame oil.
We also mixed up the accoutrement, nixing the bean sprouts in lieu of shiitake mushrooms and some fresh baby spinach. You could also add other veggies, maybe use bok choy instead of spinach or add back the bean sprouts we removed. You could even add some cubed tofu or other protein to make it a more substantial meal.
