Recipe for Boolian Noodles!

Prep time: 5 minutes

Cook time: 3–5 minutes

Servings: 2

2 packages ramen-style noodles (discard or save seasoning pack]

2 tbsp peanut butter (creamy works best)

2 tbsp toasted sesame oil

2 tbsp honey

2 tbsp soy sauce (or low-sodium soy sauce, or coconut aminos)

1 tbsp rice vinegar

1/2 tsp garlic powder

Optional: 1–2 tbsp warm water (to adjust sauce consistency)

Boil the noodles: Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add the ramen noodles and cook according to the package directions (typically 3 minutes). Drain well and set aside.

 Whisk the sauce: While the noodles cook, add the peanut butter, toasted sesame oil, honey, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and garlic powder into a medium bowl. Whisk until smooth and fully combined. (Note: If the peanut butter is firm, microwave the sauce mixture for 10–15 seconds to help it whisk easily.)

Combine: Add the warm, drained noodles directly into the bowl with the peanut butter sauce. Toss thoroughly until all noodles are evenly coated.

Adjust and serve: If the sauce feels too thick, splash in a tablespoon of warm water and toss again to loosen. 

Serve warm or chilled.
