Ingredients

1/2 cup Peanuts

2 tablespoons Soy sauce or tamari

4 teaspoons Distilled white vinegar

1 tablespoon Sugar

1/2 cup Water

2 mediums Carrots, julienned

1/2 pound Snowpeas, sliced

1 Cucumber, peeled, seeded, and julienned

Cook spaghetti according to the package directions.

In a blender or food processor, combine the peanuts, garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, cayenne pepper, and water. Blend until smooth and set aside.

Steam the carrots and the snow peas until tender-crisp, about 7 minutes, and set aside.

Rinse the spaghetti with cold water and drain thoroughly. Pour into a large mixing bowl. Toss with the sesame oil.

Add the peanut sauce, carrots, and snowpeas and toss. Just before serving, top with the green onions and cucumber.
