How to Prepare Kale Pesto Soba Noodle Bowls [Vegan]
For the Pesto:
- Add the herbs, nuts, nutritional yeast, lemon juice, miso paste, garlic, and salt to the bowl of a food processor or blender. Pulse several times until finely chopped. With the machine running, gradually pour in the olive oil and process until well combined.
- Thin with more oil, a spoonful at a time, if desired.
For the Hazelnut Dukkah:
- Toast the hazelnuts and pistachios in a large skillet over medium-low heat, stirring regularly, until lightly golden, about 5 minutes. Add the sesame, coriander, and cumin seeds. Continue to toast, stirring regularly, until fragrant and the sesame seeds are lightly browned, about 3 minutes more. Transfer to a baking sheet to cool completely.
- Add the toasted nuts and seeds, salt, and pepper to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse several times until a coarse mixture forms.
For the Bowl:
- Place the cubed beets in a steamer basket fitted in a large saucepan, with 2 inches (5 cm) of water at the bottom. Cover and steam until tender, about 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, cook the soba noodles according to the package instructions. Drain, without rinsing, and return the noodles to the pot. Add the beans and 1/2 cup (120 ml) of the pesto, and toss to combine.
- To serve, divide the soba noodles and beans among four bowls. Top with the beets, red cabbage kraut, and the remaining pesto and sprinkle with the Hazelnut Dukkah.
