Bow Thai Salad

18 ingredients
3 steps

Ingredients

  • Dressing
  • 1/4 cup creamy peanut butter
  • 2 tablespoons rice vinegar
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable broth (or chicken broth)
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons lime juice
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced gingerroot
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped cilantro leaf
  • 1 dash ground red pepper
  • Salad
  • 12 ounces farfalle pasta (bow ties)
  • 1 (12 ounce) package broccoli slaw mix
  • 9 baby carrots, julienned (to matchstick size)
  • 6 thinly sliced scallions

Directions

  1. 1
    Make the dressing by blending the first ten ingredients in a food processor or blender until emulsified. Stir in cilantro and red pepper. Taste and add salt if desired. Make in advance, if possible, and store in refrigerator to blend flavors. The dressing will thicken once chilled, but will still coat the salad easily and evenly when tossed.
  2. 2
    Cook pasta according to package directions. While it's still boiling and about one minute away from being done, add broccoli slaw and matchstick carrots (along with any other veggies to be blanched such as snow peas or small broccoli florets) to the cooking pot. Bring back to a boil for no more than one minute in order to blanch the veggies and finish cooking the pasta, then drain and rinse both under cold water. This process enhances color and flavor while keeping the veggies crisp-tender.
  3. 3
    Combine the drained pasta-veggie mixture with scallions (and any other raw veggies you choose such as thinly sliced red pepper, cucumber, or bean sprouts) and toss everything with the delicious Thai-style dressing. Serve immediately or chill.
