SPICY PEANUT NOODLES

Steps:

• Cook the noodles according to the package instructions.
• Meanwhile, combine the peanut butter, chili crisp, sesame oil, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sugar and ginger in a large bowl and whisk to combine. (The sauce might look curdled, but keep whisking until smooth.)
• Drain the noodles, add them to the bowl with the sauce and toss until the noodles are nicely coated. Garnish with chopped scallions and peanuts. Add additional chili crisp if you prefer more spice.

SPICY GINGER CHILI NOODLES

Steps:

• Heat the avocado oil in a small saucepan over medium heat until hot (350 degrees F), 2 to 3 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the scallions, garlic paste, ginger, red pepper flakes and salt in a heatproof bowl. Stir well.
• Remove the oil from the heat and carefully add to the mixture. Stir to combine and set aside. Let the flavors sit to combine for 20 minutes. (This mixture can be made ahead of time, cooled completely and stored in an airtight jar at room temperature for up to 2 days.)
• Cook the linguine in a large pot of salted water until al dente. Drain and add the hot noodles to a large bowl.
• Add the flavored oil, honey, soy sauce and sesame oil. Toss well to combine. Add more soy or salt to taste.
• Garnish with sliced scallions and sriracha to taste.

CARROT NOODLES WITH SPICY PEANUT DRESSING

Steps:

• Use a vegetable peeler to shave the carrots into thin wide ribbons; discard the last thick strip. Transfer the carrot ribbons to a large bowl, fill with ice water and let stand 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, combine the cucumber and shallot in a colander, sprinkle with salt and let drain, 10 minutes. Whisk the peanut butter, soy sauce, mirin, rice vinegar, sesame oil, Sriracha, brown sugar, lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl.
• Drain the carrots, blot dry with paper towels and transfer to a serving bowl. Press the cucumber and shallot in the colander with your hands to remove any excess liquid; pat dry with paper towels and add to the carrots. Add the mint and basil and toss to combine. Drizzle the peanut dressing over the salad and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
