Chinese Sesame noodles are a takeout favorite that can be served as an appetizer, main or side dish. They are tasty enough to eat on their own and can be enjoyed warm or chilled as a cold noodle dish. Thinly sliced carrot, red pepper or crushed peanuts can also be mixed in to add a bit of crunch.

The best part? You could probably make this recipe in less time than it would take to get takeout. Not only that, by making this recipe at home, you know exactly what ingredients are going into it.

How to Make Sesame Noodles

To make Sesame Noodles, all you do is cook your pasta, whip up the sauce and then toss your noodles in it. Lastly, garnish with sesame seeds and green onions. That’s it, you’re done! Now you can toss those takeout menus and make perfect sesame noodles at home in 15 minutes flat! 🙂

To make this recipe gluten-free, simply use any type of gluten-free pasta for the noodles and substitute the soy sauce with tamari.
