Notes
Ingredient Flexibility: I often use soy sauce instead of Bragg's liquid aminos when that's what I have in my pantry, just start with 3 tablespoons as it's saltier.
Heat Level: My personal discovery is that the full 2.5 tablespoons of chili garlic sauce makes a perfectly spicy bowl for me, but I recommend starting with 1.5 if you're sensitive to heat.
Sauce Success: I always microwave the sauce mixture just until it's warm to the touch and the sugar has fully dissolved.
This helps it cling to the noodles beautifully.
Noodle Note: I never rinse the pasta after draining.
The starch left on the noodles is my secret for getting the sauce to stick properly.
Make Ahead: You can whisk the sauce together a day in advance and keep it in the fridge.
Just give it a good stir and warm it slightly before tossing with the hot noodles.
Simple Serving: I love topping my bowl with extra sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds for a little crunch.
It's also fantastic with a fried egg on top.
Equipment: If you don't have a microwave, just whisk the sauce in a small saucepan over low heat for a minute until the sugar melts.
