Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Sesame Noodle Salad Bowl.
Step 1
Start by filling a large pot with lightly salted water and bring it to a vigorous boil over high heat.

Once the water is bubbling, gently add the angel hair pasta.
Step 3
Cook it uncovered, stirring occasionally, until it reaches that perfect al dente texture, which should take about 4 to 5 minutes.
Step 4
When it’s done, drain the pasta in a colander and set it aside to cool slightly.

While the pasta is cooking, grab a large mixing bowl and whisk together some sesame oil, soy sauce, balsamic vinegar, hot chili oil, and a touch of sugar.
Step 6
This delightful dressing will bring a burst of flavor to your dish, so make sure everything is well combined.
Step 7
Now, it’s time to bring it all together! Add the warm pasta to the bowl with your flavorful dressing and toss it gently to ensure every strand is coated.
Step 8
For a pop of color and crunch, sprinkle in some sesame seeds, chopped green onions, and diced red bell pepper.
Step 9
Give it a gentle mix to combine all those vibrant ingredients.
Step 10
You can serve this delicious pasta salad warm, or if you prefer a refreshing twist, cover it and pop it in the fridge for a little while.

Either way, you’ll have a delightful dish that’s perfect for any occasion! Enjoy your culinary creation!.
