1. Gather the ingredients.

2. Boil noodles in large pot of unsalted water over medium heat until barely tender and

still firm. Drain immediately and rinse with cold water until cold.

3. Drain well and toss noodles with (2 tbsp) dark sesame oil so they don't stick together.

processor fitted with steel blade and blend until smooth. Thin with hot water to the

consistency of whipping cream.
