10-Minute Soy Ginger Noodles

I love noodles. When I’m in a pinch and need a quick dinner, I always reach for these quick, 10-minute soy ginger noodles. If I really don’t have a lot of time, I’ll skip the ginger and it’s just a salty sesame noodle dish. Mix it up and try adding other aromatics like onions, shallots, lemongrass, or even Sichuan peppercorns.

Ingredients

Noodles – You can really use any noodles you like. I like a flat, wheat noodle but you could even use this sauce with a pasta or egg noodle. When cooking my noodles, I generally don’t cook them based on time on the packaging. I usually watch my noodles boil and when they start getting limp over my tongs, I’ll rip off small bits and taste it to make sure my noodles are the perfect texture. I like my noodles to still have a little bite to them. If you like them softer, leave them in longer! You do you.

Sauce – Mix up the sauce! When I have more time I’ll mince some garlic and add it in as well. You could even add some lemongrass, shallot, five spice, or Sichuan peppercorn, to name a few. It’s even delicious with a squirt of Sriracha on top or some chili crisp.
