Ingredients

4 scallions, whites and greens separated, thinly sliced 1/2 cup vegetable oil 1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes 2 teaspoons sesame seeds 2 teaspoons Sichuan pepper, coarsely chopped 12 ounces thin ramen noodles or spaghettini Kosher salt 1/4 cup tahini (sesame seed paste) 1/4 cup unseasoned rice vinegar 3 tablespoons reduced-sodium soy sauce 2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil 1 teaspoon sugar ingredient info: Sichuan pepper is available at Asian markets and some specialty foods stores. If you can't find it, add an extra teaspoon each of red pepper and tahini.

Instructions

Cook scallion whites, vegetable oil, red pepper flakes, sesame seeds, and pepper in a small saucepan over low heat, stirring occasionally, until oil is sizzling and scallions are golden brown, 12-15 minutes; let chili oil cool in saucepan. Meanwhile, cook noodles in a large pot of salted boiling water until al dente; drain. Rinse under cold water and drain well.
