Gomasio
Preparation:
Bring a large pot of water to a boil. When the water is vigorously boiling, add the noodles, break them up from their bundle shape, turn off the heat and cover the pot. Let the noodles sit while you prepare the rest of the dish. They will need to sit for about6 minutes or so to be al dente. Do not over “cook”. Drain when done.
While noodles are soaking, heat a wok or large, heavy skillet over high heat, add oil and heat until shimmering. Add the shrimp, peppers and broccoli and toss around several times until shrimp just begins to turn pink. Add oyster sauce, water, sesame oil and sambal, if using, and toss everything together until the shrimp are about three-quarters of the way cooked through. This will only take a minute or two. Add the drained noodles and toss everything together and stir-fry for about a minute to heat everything through. Taste and adjust seasoning, if needed. Plate up your food and garnish with a sprinkling of gomasio. Serve immediately.

Tips
We have found that Asian style rice noodles can be pricey in conventional supermarkets but very inexpensive in small specialized Asian markets. If you have any near you, definitely check them out.
