2 tbsp sesame seeds, taosted

1 tsp sea salt

3 cups chilled spring or purified water

8 oz rice noodles

1/4 cup cucumbers, julienned and sliced tomato for garnishv


Directions:

Soak the soybeans in cold water overnight

Next day, drain the soybeans. Put into a pot, cover with water and boil for 15 minutes. 

Drain and add cold water. When you rub the beans with your fingers, the skin will come off. Once the skins are off, you can add more water and swirl them around and the skin will float to the top. Discard all skins.

Put the skinned soybeans in the blender with toasted sesame seeds, salt and spring water. Blend until smooth. It will look like frothy milk. Keep the soy milk in the refrigerator until the noodles are done.

Cook the noodles according to the package instructions. After the noodles are done, drain and rinse in cold water several times. 

To serve, mound the noodles in a bowl and pour the chilled soy milk broth around the noodles.

Garnish with cucumbers, tomato and a few sesame seeds for color.
