After a summer of cooking lots of American food, I decided I wanted to make more Asian dishes. So I looked up a recipe to make peanut sesame noodles. My friend Corinna would often make this in college, and bring around a humongous pot to feed everyone on our dorm floor. It’s a pretty cost-efficient dish if you have to feed a lot of mouths I guess!
Surprisingly, a recipe on yahoo caught my eye: http://shine.yahoo.com/channel/food/recipe-for-a-late-summer-potluck-sesame-noodles-2363652/
I got all the ingredients together and was planning to make it one Saturday afternoon. I was headed out the door that morning and told Edwin my plans to make the noodles later in the day. He said he wanted to try his hand at it, and insisted on making it while I was gone. No complaints here!

I think he tweaked the recipe a bit (maybe didn’t add quite so much peanut butter to allow the sesame flavor to come out?). The results: I think it was better than I could have done! The perfect cool and refreshing meal to round out a summer day.
