I haven't perfected it yet at all; I'll have to give yours a try. I
also use linguine noodles.

I just happen to have a quart of strong chicken stock in the fridge;
last time I didn't use any stock, that might be what was missing.

Is that enough chili? I don't think so. Unless your chili paste is a
*lot* hotter than mine.

Best regards,
Bob

Sounds good, though I'm not good with chilli so I'd probably leave that
out. Might try Christine's suggestion of adding candied ginger.Need to pick
up some rice vinegar and sesame oil next supermarket visit, but I've got
some Hokkien noodles on hand which I would probably use rather than buy
linguine.

Might make some up to take for a couple of work lunches. I could have it
for dinner, but I'll have to make Rob something else as he won't eat this.
Anyway, thanks for the idea.

I wonder how pad thai noodles would work in this? I have almost all of the
ingredients on hand.

I think the thin rice noodles are too fine for this dish. Heavier sauces
go well with more substantial noodles.

This is pretty close to my recipe. I use water instead of chicken
stock. I always inorporate tempered julienned carrot (I'll have to try
diakon) and tempered julienned snow peas, and I make it with soba
instead of linquini. And you are absolutely right that it is best
after a day. I always make mine the day before.

I serve it with this.

Salmon With Ginger Sauce

1 to 1 1/2 lb salmon fillet about an inch thick
1 cup orange juice
1 Tbsp Light soy sauce
2 tsp peeled, grated ginger
1 tsp Dijon mustard
chili paste to taste

Cut fish crosswise into 4 equal pieces and place in shallow dish.
Combine marinade ingredients and pour over fish. Cover and place in
refrigerator for 30-45 minutes. Spray broiler pan with cooking spray.
Remove fish from marinade, reserving marinade, and place fish skin
side down on broiler pan. Broil 10-15 minutes or to taste or until
fish flakes easily with a fork. Meanwhile, bring reserved marinade to
a low boil in a saucepan and reduce. When fish is done, pour marinade
over and serve with the recipe above.

This is kind of like mine except in where to add the sesame flavor. I
toast about 1/4 cup sesame seeds and whir all but 1 tablespoon of them
into the sauce (blender mixed before cooking) and I don't put in the
sesame oil in the cooked sauce. Then when I go to dress the noodles and
serve, that's when I add the tablespoon of leftover seeds and the fresh
unheated 2 tsp. sesame oil. I find then that the sesame flavor is more
pronounced and not at all bitter or degraded. Oh, and some matchsticks
of cucumber and some chicken shreds would be nice tossed in there, too.

Looks very yummy Steve. I'm going to try it soon--- maybe with some
broken peanuts sprinkled on top. And I like the idea of peanut butter
instead of tahini. They had some gorgeous daikons at Whole Foods last
time I went. Have you ever used the Spectrum toasted sesame oil? It's
so good. Thanks for the recipe!
