I love the taste of toasted sesame oil and I came up with this cold buckwheat noodle dish. Actually you can serve hot or cold, I prefer cold. A bit of Asian flair, simple to make and really healthy. Not what you would really call this, a pasta salad? side dish, whatever you choose its tasty

    *note: I make my own ginger sherry by buying a large piece of ginger root, peel, slice into 1/4 inch thick coins and add to a jar, fill with sherry and leave in refrigerator. Ginger will keep for a long time this way and when you want to use a little sherry just remember to top the bottle off again
