This easy recipe by Basic Kitchen’s Robin Hollis is endlessly riffable: The lightly sweet, nutty sesame sauce makes a great starting point for additions such as salmon, grilled chicken, a fried or boiled egg, or extra veggies. Lightly toast sesame seeds before using to release their aromatic oils.

- 1 (12-ounce) English cucumber
- 12 ounces uncooked soba noodles
- 1/4 cup plus 2 tablespoon sesame oil, divided
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt

- 3 tablespoons rice vinegar
