Instructions
- 1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Cook the soba noodles according to package directions until just tender with a slight resistance at the center, about 5–6 minutes. Drain in a colander and rinse under cold running water until the noodles are cool to the touch, then shake off excess water and set aside.

While the water heats, whisk together the olive oil, lime juice, tamari, honey, ginger, sesame oil, and red pepper flakes, if using, in a mixing bowl until the honey is fully dissolved and the dressing is smooth. Set aside.
