Preparation
Step 1
Bring water to a boil and cook the soba noodles according to the package directions, (just slightly on the al dente side). Drain in cool water to remove starchiness. (This helps the texture and prevents the soba noodles from getting gummy and gluey).*See notes for more cooking tips.
Step 2
Stir together the Soba Noodle Sauce ingredients: sesame oil, rice vinegar, maple syrup, soy sauce.
Step 3
Stir fry. Heat oil over medium-high heat in a wok or skillet. Add napa cabbage, shiitake mushrooms, carrot strips, and a sprinkle of salt. Stir constantly for 2-3 minutes. Stir in garlic and ginger for 1-2 minutes. Add bell pepper and white part of the green onion stir-frying for 2-3 minutes until just tender but still crisp.
Step 4
Add the soba noodles and sauce. Toss together 1-2 minutes letting it thoroughly heat through.
Step 5
Sprinkle with sesame seeds and green onions. Add black sesame seeds for garnish if desired.
