This is a summer meal - soba noodles and peanut sauce - but it has been in the seventies here, and with all that bayou in the air, it felt hot, baby.After the photo, I added some pan-fried tofu, a head of chopped romaine, and toasted peanuts. I topped it with a peanut dressing that has become a real pal over the years... I love Didi Emmons, and her pizza restaurant in Cambridge, MA (Veggie Planet, just near the Harvard Coop). The peanut sauce is from her book, Entertaining for a Veggie Planet.
From memory (I think accurate):
1c coconut milk (I always use low-fat)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2T ginger
2t chili sauce
handful of chopped cilantro (I added mint too, because I had it)
tamari to taste
1/2c peanut butter
juice of 1/2 lime (about 1T)

Ah, mint... remember back in the summer when we were both obsessed with it?
My mint plant, which I was trying to coax through the winter, is almost dead. The other day I found the dog snacking on it.
