    Directions

    Total time: 25 minutes

    In a small bowl, whisk the molasses, Dijon mustard, vinegar, soy sauce, sesame oil, crushed red pepper flakes and salt.

    In a large pot of salted water, boil the edamame until crisp-tender, about 4 minutes. With a slotted spoon, transfer edamame to a bowl; set aside. Add the pasta to boiling water and cook until al dente, about 2 minutes. Rinse with water until cool; drain. In a large bowl, toss noodles with sesame dressing.

    Add red bell pepper, cucumber, tofu, scallions and reserved edamame. Toss, divide among 4 plates, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve.
