# Step-by-Step Guide:
01 -
Right before serving, toss in the cilantro, green onions, and peanuts. Give it a gentle toss so everything mixes up. Serve cold.
02 -
Wrap the bowl and set it in the fridge for at least four hours, or overnight if possible, to let everything get tasty together.
03 -
Pour the dressing over the pasta while it’s still warm. Mix it all up so the pasta gets coated everywhere.
04 -
Add honey, soy sauce, and salt into those hot oils. Take the pan off the heat and whisk until smooth and mixed.
05 -
Put sesame oil and veggie oil in a little pot and warm them on medium. Toss in red pepper flakes and let it bubble for two minutes but don’t let it burn.
06 -
Boil a big pot of salted water and cook your bowtie pasta as the package says. Strain and pop it in a big bowl.
# Additional Notes:
01 -
Letting this chill in the fridge makes the flavors soak in better. Only use fresh herbs and nuts so you get awesome crunch and fresh smells.
