Instructions

Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add the kosher salt, then cook the spaghetti according to package directions until al dente — tender with a slight resistance at the center. Reserve 1/2 cup of pasta cooking water before draining, then drain the noodles in a colander.

While the pasta cooks, whisk together the vegan oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, toasted sesame oil, white pepper, and nutritional yeast in a small bowl until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
