Cool, savory, and full of crunch, this soba noodle salad is a fun one to bring to a picnic or potluck. Soba are nutty Japanese buckwheat noodles, and they soak up a garlicky dressing of tamari, Toasted Sesame Oil, and Cucumber White Barrel Aged Balsamic, with a touch of brown sugar for balance. Crisp carrot, cucumber, green onion, and sesame seeds finish it off.
Pro Tip: Turn on Cook Mode to keep your screen awake while cooking.
