Beef And Soba Noodles

Ingredients

Place a large pot of water over high heat until water comes to a boil. Add noodles and cook for 5 minutes. Drain in a colander, reserving 1/4 cup cooking liquid. Rinse noodles under cool water and set drained noodles aside.
In a small bowl, combine steak with sesame oil, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, Sriracha, vinegar, scallions, garlic, ginger and the chili powder and set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a wok over high heat. Add meat along with its marinade and stir-fry until just cooked through, 1 to 2 minutes. Add noodles and stir-fry for 1 minute before adding edamame. Toss to combine. Garnish with sesame seeds, peanuts, and pea shoots. Serve immediately.
Cook's Note: Korean ground chili powder is made from small red chiles, which are dried and ground. It has quite a bit of heat and is used to make kimchi; it's not as a finely ground as cayenne but is finer than our crushed red pepper. You can find it in Asian markets and online; it's also known as "gochu galu." Crushed red pepper can be pulsed in a spice mill or in a food processor and then substituted in a pinch.
