Announcing the Peanut-Sesame Noodle Throwdown!

The Kosher Bachelor is doing a throwdown with... the Kosher Bachelor!

My peanut-sesame noodles have long been a favorite at my Shabbat table. As you recall, I make them with whole-wheat spaghetti. The last couple of times, however, I decided to mix things up and use angel hair to see if the thinner noodle soaks up the sauce better. I got good reviews on that, too.  Last Shabbat, I switched back to the spaghetti and the comments I got were "These taste different," "They're earthier, I like the angel hair better."

So now I have to settle this and what better way than, in the spirit of Bobby Flay, with a throwdown against myself?

I'll be prepping three batches of noodles: angel hair, whole-wheat spaghetti and regular spaghetti, all using the same sesame-peanut sauce.  My panel of judges will then decide which cuisine reigns supreme. 

So keep your eyes posted here because this throwdown is coming soon!
