Notes about this recipe

  • Eat Your Books

    Can substitute green tea noodles for soba noodles; white sesame seeds for black sesame seeds; and baby spinach, baby rocket, cos lettuce, iceberg lettuce, or wombok for mixed baby greens. Can use the book's "Chicken breast - poach it".

    I haven’t made the full salad, so maybe I’m cheating by reviewing this, but the dressing is SO GOOD that I can’t imagine that it’s anything but exceptional. Made dressing exactly as written, using an immersion blending, and it was perfect - very creamy and umami.

    I loved everything about this salad, especially the dressing. Sadly we won’t repeat it because my beloved doesn’t like soba noodles. I might try bulking it out with more veggies and more chicken to get him to have it again

    Wanting leftovers, I used more salad greens (with iceberg instead of napa cabbage), double the noodles, and slightly more chicken (poached per a different recipe). There was just enough dressing for everything. The salad was really delicious and there wasn't as much left over as I was hoping for.

    Loved the salad dressing. I used marinated tofu in place of the poached chicken breasts which made for not the prettiest presentation, but still tasted great. I would make this again.
