SOBA NOODLE AND STEAK SALAD WITH GINGER-LIME DRESSING



Soba Noodle and Steak Salad With Ginger-Lime Dressing image

Soba, which are buckwheat noodles common in Japanese cooking, work well for a weeknight meal: They take just a few minutes to cook and can be served warm or at room temperature (which means they make great leftovers). Hanger steak is quickly seared in a drizzle of oil, and once done, the bok choy is cooked in the residual fat left behind, leaving you with one less pan to wash. This flexible dish also works well with seared or grilled shrimp or chicken. Shredded cabbage or tender broccolini could also be swapped in for the bok choy. Soft herbs like basil or cilantro would also be nice. The only thing you need to round out this meal is wine, preferably chilled and pink.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

8 ounces soba noodles
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup lime juice (from 2 limes)
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon light brown sugar
1 pound hanger or skirt steak, at room temperature
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 tablespoon canola or grapeseed oil, plus more as needed
8 ounces baby bok choy, halved lengthwise if large
1 cup julienned or thinly sliced carrots
3 to 4 radishes, thinly sliced (optional)
1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions (2 or 3 scallions)
1/4 cup fresh mint, torn
Flaky salt, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Cook soba noodles according to package instructions. Rinse under cold water, drain well and set aside. Meanwhile, in a medium bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, lime juice, ginger, sesame oil and brown sugar; set aside.
  • Season the steak well with salt and pepper. Heat a large cast-iron pan over medium-high until very hot, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the canola oil and when it shimmers, add the steak and cook, undisturbed, until it begins to get crisp and golden on the outside, 3 to 4 minutes. (If you are using skirt steak, you may need to cut it into 2 or 3 pieces to fit in the pan, then cook for 2 to 3 minutes.) Flip and finish cooking, about 3 minutes more for medium-rare. Set aside and allow the steak to rest while you prepare the rest of the salad.
  • Turn heat to medium and add the bok choy. Season with salt and pepper and cook, stirring frequently, until it begins to brown and char in spots, 2 to 3 minutes, adding another teaspoon or so of oil if needed to help if the pan is too dry. Remove from the heat.
  • In a large bowl, toss the soba noodles, carrots, radishes (if using) and half the scallions. Drizzle with the ginger-lime dressing to taste and divide among plates or in serving bowls. Thinly slice the steaks against the grain and top each portion with some of the steak and the bok choy. Scatter the remaining scallions and the mint over top and season with flaky salt, if desired. Serve with any leftover dressing in a small bowl to be passed at the table.

SOBA NOODLES WITH GINGER BROTH AND CRUNCHY GINGER



Soba Noodles With Ginger Broth and Crunchy Ginger image

This noodle dish celebrates the pungent, spicy notes of ginger by both infusing it in stock to create a warming broth and frying it with shallots and panko to create crunchy ginger crumbs you'll want to sprinkle onto everything: eggs, rice or even a savory porridge. Feel free to double the amount of the ginger crumbs, if you like; they'll keep in an airtight jar at room temperature for up to one week. Serve these noodles with your protein of choice - tofu, fish, leftover roast chicken - or any cooked vegetable for a complete meal.

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

6 tablespoons/90 milliliters olive oil
1 1/2 teaspoons red-pepper (chilli) flakes
1/2 teaspoon sweet paprika
1 (2-inch) piece fresh ginger (about 30 grams), peeled and finely chopped (about 3 tablespoons)
1 shallot, peeled and finely chopped
1/4 cup/20 grams panko bread crumbs
1 tablespoon white and black sesame seeds
Kosher salt
2 1/4 cups/500 milliliters chicken stock or vegetable stock
1 (4-inch) piece fresh ginger (about 65 grams), peeled and roughly chopped (about 1/3 cup)
1 shallot, peeled and roughly chopped
1 small head of garlic, halved crosswise
7 to 9 ounces/about 200 grams dried soba noodles
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/3 cup/10 grams roughly chopped fresh cilantro (coriander)

Steps:

  • First, prepare the toppings: Add 4 tablespoons oil to a large skillet and heat gently over medium. Place the red-pepper (chilli) flakes and paprika into a small heatproof bowl. Once the oil is quite hot but not smoking, pour it over the spices. Set aside to infuse as you make the ginger crumbs.
  • Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil to the same skillet and heat over medium-high. Once hot, turn the heat back down to medium and add the ginger and shallot. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often, until nicely browned and starting to crisp. Add the panko, sesame seeds and 1/4 teaspoon salt, and cook for 4 to 6 minutes more, stirring often, until nicely toasted. Transfer to a bowl and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, make the broth: Add all the broth ingredients plus 3/4 cup/200 milliliters water and 1 teaspoon salt to a medium lidded saucepan, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cover once simmering, turn the heat down to low and cook for 25 minutes. Drain through a sieve set over a bowl, discarding the solids, and return the broth to the saucepan along with another 1 1/4 cups/300 milliliters hot water. Keep warm over low heat until ready to serve.
  • Prepare the noodles: Boil them in a pot or saucepan according to package instructions, or for 5 minutes in plenty of boiling water. Drain well and run under cold water to stop the cooking. Return the drained noodles to the pot or saucepan and toss with the lime juice, soy sauce and cilantro (coriander).
  • Divide the warm broth across four bowls, then use a fork to twist and gather the noodles and nest them artfully in the bowls. Top with a spoonful of the ginger crumbs and the chile oil, serving the remaining alongside.

Tips:

  • Select the right soba noodles: Look for high-quality soba noodles made with buckwheat flour. These noodles have a nutty flavor and a slightly chewy texture.
  • Cook the noodles according to the package instructions: Soba noodles are typically cooked in boiling water for a few minutes until they are tender but still have a slight bite to them.
  • Rinse the noodles in cold water after cooking: This helps to remove any excess starch and prevents the noodles from sticking together.
  • Make the ginger-sesame dressing ahead of time: This allows the flavors to meld and develop. You can store the dressing in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Add your favorite toppings: Soba noodles can be topped with a variety of ingredients, such as shredded chicken, tofu, vegetables, and nuts.

Conclusion:

Soba noodles with ginger-sesame dressing is a delicious and healthy meal that is perfect for a quick and easy lunch or dinner. The noodles are light and refreshing, and the dressing is flavorful and tangy. This dish is also a good source of protein and fiber. With a little planning, you can have a delicious and nutritious meal on the table in no time.
