Gochujang roast celeriac noodle bowls🍜🍜

-This dish provides a delicious fusion of flavors with the spiciness of gochujang and the earthy sweetness of roasted celeriac. Adjust the spice level according to your preference, and feel free to add extra vegetables or protein for a more substantial meal.

Ingredients:

1 tbsp reduced-salt soy sauce
½ tbsp sesame oil
1 tbsp gochujang
1 tbsp mirin
½ large, or 1 small celeriac, peeled and cut into 1cm cubes
200g wholewheat, buckwheat or brown rice noodles
180g cucumber, diced
2 tbsp rice vinegar
2 tsp maple syrup or runny honey
180g edamame, blanched or defrosted
100g radishes, diced
2 spring onions, sliced
1 tsp black or white sesame seeds
a handful of leaves coriander and mint, to serve

Directions:

-Heat the oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Whisk together the soy, sesame oil, gochujang and mirin in a small bowl, then pour over the celeriac in a small baking tray. Toss well and roast for 35-40 minutes until the celeriac is sticky and glazed.

-When the celeriac is almost ready, cook the noodles following pack instructions, then rinse under cold water. Put the cucumber in a bowl and toss with the vinegar and maple syrup.

-Add the cooked noodles to the baking tray and toss with the celeriac and gochujang sauce. Add 1-2 tbsp of just-boiled water to loosen the sauce and coat the noodles. Mix well until everything is combined and saucy.

-Divide the noodles between bowls, top with the pickled cucumber, edamame, radishes and spring onions. Scatter with the sesame seeds and herbs to serve.

The Savory Science of Instant Noodles
This combination of traits make instant noodles a seemingly perfect solution for college students’ hectic schedules and depleted bank accounts. Let us take a moment to appreciate what made instant noodles possible — let us savor the science behind this culinary delicacy. Instant noodles are truly a technological marvel – they can last for up to 12 months on the shelf, and a tiny little packet of seasoning makes the noodles taste so good. You can thank science for making this all possible.

Sharing an easy, weeknight, takeout-at-home-style dinner, Crispy Sesame Garlic Chili Oil Noodles. Homemade spicy chili oil with crispy garlic, shallots, and sesame seeds all tossed with quick-cooking rice noodles and fresh herbs. These noodles are saucy, just a little spicy, and the recipe comes together in no time at all (about 25-minutes). Perfect for busy weeknights when you’re looking for something with a little more flavor, but still quick, and delicious.

At the Filipino gatherings of my youth, you could always count on ample amounts of pancit, a noodle stir-fry seasoned with oyster sauce and fish sauce. Pancit recipes vary, but they tend to take shape based on whatever you toss in the wok. The goal is not to get a crazy hot sear, but simply to get everything warmed through and cooked. Without the savory crunch of fried garlic, my kitchen wouldn't be the same.
