Cold Soba Noodle with Spicy Almond Hazelnut Butter Sauce




Soba is the Japanese name for buckwheat.
(Also it is usually referred as any thin types of noodle that are made from buckwheat flour). Soba noodles could be served either chilled with a sauce, or in hot broth as a noodle soup.








 Inspired by popular peanut butter sauce, I made a spicy almond hazelnut version of it to pair with the chilled Soba. I think the result was surprisingly delicious! The rich, sweet, savory and nutty flavors (did I mention it has lots of fresh spring onions) with a little spicy kick, it complemented the chilled noodles so well.



For dinner, I served it with seared skirt steak (I even used the same sauce on the steak) and steamed green beans as well as a side. It was "delish"!
