Green Cold Sesame Noodles

Love cold sesame noodles when the weather is hot. So many recipes for them are really peanut noodles so I decided to try sesame tahnini instead to amp up the sesame flavor. I also wanted something that was a bit like a salad with noodles in it...

Cook one bunch soba noodles according to package directions.
In a medium size bowl, combine:
1 tbsp. sesame tahini
1/2 tsp. rice wine vinegar
1/2 tsp. toasted sesame oil
one finely-chopped clove of garlic
one finely-chopped small thumb of ginger
a splash of sriracha or other hot sauce
2 tbsp. warm water
1 tsp. toasted sesame seeds
2 tsp. soy sauce

Mix noodles with the dressing. Then toss with:
1/2 cup blanched green beans
1/2 cup julienned cucumber
1/2 cup shredded lettuce
1 generous bunch of pea-shoots, fresh cilantro and chopped
spring onions
