2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil

4 tablespoons sesame oil

2 tablespoons wheat-free tamari

¼ cup ume plum vinegar

2 pitted dates

Directions:

1. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. While the water is coming to a boil, roughly chop your carrot cilantro, scallions and cabbage.

2. Add the soba noodles to the boiling water and cook until tender. Drain and run cold water over them until completely cooled. Place into a bowl and drizzle with a touch of sesame oil to help prevent sticking. Add the carrot, cilantro, scallions, and cabbage.

3. Prepare the dressing by adding the ingredients to a blender and blending on high for about 45 seconds.
