O CRUMBS
Place the sesame seeds in a pan over medium heat. Toast for 4-5 minutes until browned and fragrant, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and place in a blender. Pulse until a rough crumb and set aside.
GO FOR GOLD
Boil the kettle. Return the pan to a medium heat with the cashews. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan and roughly chop. Set aside.
OODLES OF SOBA NOODLES
Fill a pot with boiling water, add a pinch of salt, and place over high heat. Once bubbling rapidly, cook the noodles for 6-8 minutes until tender. In the final minute, add the edamame beans. Drain and run under cold water to stop the cooking process. Toss through some oil to prevent sticking and set aside.
ADD SOME UMAMI
In a small bowl, combine the kewpie mayo, the mirin-soy vinaigrette, the pulsed sesame seeds, 1 tbsp of a sweetener of choice, and seasoning (be careful, the soy sauce is salty).
TASTY TEAMWORK
