Instructions

Cook the rice noodles per the package directions, but add some neutral-flavored oil to the pot. When done, rinse the noodles with cold water to stop cooking. Drain the noodles and immediately toss them with 1/2 cup of neutral-flavored oil to prevent clumping.
In a small food processor, prepare the sweet soy sauce by combining the garlic, fresh lime juice, soy sauce, sugar, tahini, and Sriracha. Stir in the neutral-flavored oil.
Add the desired amount of Sweet Soy Sauce to the noodles and toss to coat.

My son and I have been baking together since he could stand and hold a spatula. It’s a bond that is special to me, and I’m grateful that we can continue to bake together when he is at home on break from college. This delicious and easy peach plum galette recipe is a collaboration between us that we came up with when we were at home isolated with Covid.

You can use any stone fruit in this beautiful galette. Peaches and plums are in season through September in California and this pastry is a perfect marriage of sweet, bitter, and buttery yumminess. Your family and friends will be impressed with your culinary skills! Surprisingly, it only takes 10 minutes to prep, then pop it in the oven for a glorious dessert.
