Chatelaine Triple Tested

Ingredients

  • 3 1-in. bundles soba noodles, about 270 g

  • 6 fresh shiitake mushrooms, sliced

  • 425-g pkg baby spinach, about 9 cups

  • 3 tbsp teriyaki sauce

  • 3 tbsp rice vinegar

  • 1 tbsp granulated sugar

  • 1 tbsp dark sesame oil

  • 4 1/2 tsp grated fresh ginger

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

  • 1/2 454-g pkg frozen cooked shrimp, thawed and patted dry

  • toasted sesame seeds, optional

Instructions

  • Cook noodles in a large pot of boiling water, following package directions but omitting salt, until al dente, about 4 min. Add mushrooms during the last minute of cooking. Before draining, stir in spinach, then drain immediately. Rinse well under cold running water. Then drain very well.

  • Whisk teriyaki with vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, ginger and garlic in a large bowl. Add soba mixture and shrimp. Stir until well coated. Serve at room temperature with a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds.

Nutrition Tip:

Dark buckwheat flour is higher in protein and lower in calories than regular pasta: A cup of cooked soba has only 119 calories. It’s also the reason soba noodles have a brownish-grey colour.

Gluten-Free Tip:

Look for soba made with 100% buckwheat — many are made from a blend of buckwheat and wheat flours.
