Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the soba noodles according to package directions until just tender with a slight resistance at the center, about 4–5 minutes. Drain, rinse under cold water to stop cooking, and set aside.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the peanut butter, tamari, maple syrup, lime juice, grated ginger, turmeric, and red pepper flakes. Add warm water 1 tablespoon at a time, whisking until the sauce is smooth and pourable — it should coat the back of a spoon but flow easily off it. Set aside.
