- 2 stalks green onions (sliced)
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Instructions
Cook the soba noodles according to the package instructions. Once cooked, rinse thoroughly under cold water to stop the cooking and remove excess starch. Set aside.
Bring a small pot of water to a boil and blanch the edamame for 2-3 minutes until tender. Drain and set aside.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by combining almond butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sriracha (or chili paste), honey (or maple syrup), sesame oil, minced garlic, grated ginger, and water. Whisk until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooked soba noodles, edamame, and the almond sauce. Toss thoroughly to coat everything evenly.
Transfer the noodles to serving bowls. Garnish with sliced green onions, sesame seeds, and a sprinkle of red pepper flakes, if desired.
Serve immediately and enjoy this flavorful and nutritious dish!
