Directions

1. Cook the pasta until al dente according to package directions. Drain, reserving some of the starchy pasta water, rinse and set aside.
2. For the peanut dressing: Place the peanut butter in a large measuring cup and microwave to soften, about 15 seconds. Whisk in with the soy sauce, vinegar, canola oil, ginger, honey, hot sauce, and lime juice in a small bowl. Thin with the starchy pasta water if needed, 1 tablespoon at a time. (Dressing should be thick, but pourable.)
3. For the salad: Thinly slice the green onions, cabbage, and bell pepper. Place the pasta in a large mixing bowl, add the vegetables, and toss with the dressing. Top with the chopped peanuts and sesame seeds and serve.
