Recipe by Jackie Newgent, New York, New York This Asian noodle bowl is great cold, so plan to take leftovers to work. Store your bottle of dark sesame oil in the fridge. The oil will solidify, so let it come to room temperature before measuring.

Ingredients

3/4 cup rice wine vinegar
1/3 cup lite soy sauce
1/3 cup honey
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger
2 tablespoons dark sesame oil

1 large red bell pepper, thinly sliced
