Radiators with Sesame Peanut Sauce

Sfoglini Radiators with Sesame Peanut Sauce and topped with peanuts, cucumbers, scallions, and chili crunch

This recipe is the Asian take-out pasta dish of your dreams, prepared in the time it takes to boil the pasta. It’s savory, sweet, tart, spicy, and impossibly fresh. The best thing about it is that the sauce is customizable according to your taste preferences, and it can be made a day in advance before being combined with the pasta. Even more customizations come in to play with the toppings! Will you dress your bowl with peanuts, cucumbers, scallions, chili crunch for extra heat, or a delightful combination of all four?

INGREDIENTS

MAKES FOUR SERVING

For the sauce

  • 3 tablespoons sesame oil, plus more for pasta

  • 3 tablespoons tahini
  • 4 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon grated ginger
  • 2 small cloves of garlic, minced or run through a garlic press
  • 2 tablespoons creamy peanut butter
  • 2 teaspoons oyster sauce
  • 1/2 teaspoon fish sauce
  • 2 tablespoons. hoisin sauce or brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon. Sriracha or Gochujang

    For assembling

    • 1-pound Sfoglini Radiators

    • Chopped peanuts, to serve
    • Cucumber, thinly sliced, to serve
    • Scallions, thinly sliced, to serve
    • Chili crunch, to serve

          DIRECTIONS

          Bring a pot of unsalted salted water to a boil for the pasta. The sauce itself is quite salty so the pasta doesn’t need it. 

          Combine all of the sauce ingredients in a bowl and whisk until combined. Taste and add more of whatever you like. Refrigerate until ready to use. 

          Cook the pasta to al dente, according to the package instructions. Strain and rinse thoroughly with cold water repeatedly until they’re cool. 

          Combine the pasta and sauce, tossing gently until the pasta is thoroughly coated.

          Serve topping as desired with peanuts, sliced cucumber, scallions, and chili crunch.

          Chef's Note: Regular soy sauce, tamari, or coconut aminos can be substituted for the low-sodium soy sauce, but taste the sauce before tossing with the pasta. Basic, store-bought creamy peanut butter works best for this recipe, as it will blend with the other ingredients most easily. However, natural, crunchy, or other varieties of peanut butter will work as well with a little more stirring and salt. Other nut butters are not recommended as they would more significantly alter the flavor of the dish. 

          Pasta Swaps: This recipe would also work well with Porcini Trumpets, Vesuvio, or Einkorn Macaroni.
