Ready In:
To prepare tahini dressing, whisk together tahini and remaining dressing ingredients. Set aside.
To prepare soba noodles, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the noodles, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 4 to 5 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse in cold running water. Toss the noodles with the canola oil to prevent them from sticking together, and chill.
When you are ready to serve, place the noodles in a large bowl and toss with tahini dressing. Garnish with carrot, cabbage, sliced green onions and toasted sesame seeds.
Tahini dressing will keep in the refrigerator for about a week, in a covered container.
