Preparation

  1. Cook 1lb spaghetti, al dente (rinse under cold water)

  3. In a bowl, mix together: a. 2 more tbsp seasame oil b. ½ cup natural-style peanut butter (I like the crunchy kind but creamy is OK too) c. 1/3 cup tamari soy sauce d. 3 tbsp Chinese rice wine e. 1 tbsp water f. 1 and ½ tbsp rice vinegar g. 1 tbsp vegetable oil h. 1 tbsp light brown sugar i. 1 tsp fresh minced ginger (I usually put in more) j. 3 garlic cloves, minced k. ½ tsp crushed red pepper flakes (or to your taste)

  5. Add sliced vegetables (we usually put in cucumbers, red pepper, and scallions). Carrots might also be good.
