Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 pound spaghetti
1/4 cup sesame oil
1/2 cup natural style creamy peanut butter
1/3 cup tamari soy sauce
3 tablespoons sherry
1 tablespoon water
1 1/2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon light brown sugar -- firmly packed
3 cloves garlic -- finely minced
1 teaspoon ginger root -- minced
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes -- crushed
1 cucumber -- peeled and sliced
4 scallions -- thinly sliced

Cook the spaghettini al dente. Drain and rinse under cold water. Drain very
well again. With your hands, toss the noodles with half of the sesame oil.
Cover and chill until ready to combine with the peanut sauce, or up to 24
hours.

To make the peanut sauce, combine the remaining sesame oil with all the other
ingredients except the cucumber and scallion. Beat until well mixed. The sauce
can be kept in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 24 hours before serving.

Just before serving, gently toss the noodles with the sauce, cucumbers and
half the scallions. Garnish with the remaining scallions.
