This sauce works perfectly for ramen and also for most noodle recipes for a delicious dinner fix.

Should you toast sesame seeds for ramen? How to toast sesame seeds?

Toasting sesame seeds for this dish is optional. Toasting seeds gives a nice nutty flavor which is totally optional to do if you are not a fan of nutty flavor in your dish.

To toast sesame seeds, simply heat a skillet or a pan and sprinkle the seeds on the pan. With a spatula keep moving the seeds continuously so that the seeds do not burn.

When you see the seeds are slightly browned, that means the seeds are done.

What To Add To Sesame Ramen Noodles?

Sesame noodles taste amazing as it is, so you do not need to add anything extra like veggies or protein of any kind. But if you like to make the dish colorful and healthier then you can add vegetables of your choice, chicken, shrimp, boiled egg, a lot of broth to make this dish soupy, if you like.

Tips To make Sesame Ramen Noodles:

• Cook ramen or any noodles of your choice till al dente. Toss the noodles with little oil to avoid sticking the noodles to each other.
• If you are not interested in adding many vegetables or shrimp/chicken then you can skip them. The recipe won't taste differently.
• Adding sriracha is a personal choice. I like to add a little heat to my dishes so I have added sriracha, but you can skip it.
• Instead of shrimp use chicken if you want to use chicken.
• Adding more vegetables instead of chicken/shrimp is perfectly fine for the final dish to be good.
