    1/3 c  Finely chopped cilantro
      2 tb Tahini
      2 tb Miso
      1 ts Dark sesame oil
      3 tb Orange juice
    1/2 ts Red pepper flakes
      2    Green onions, finely chopped
    1/2    Red bell pepper, minced
      4 c  Cooked udon or soba noodles
           -drained, rinsed and drained
           -again
 
  This can be prepared a day ahead. The bit of tahini (sesame paste)
  creates a creamy sauce that contrasts well with the crisp vegetables.
  
  In a large bowl, combine cilantro, tahini, miso, oil, orange juice,
  and red pepper flakes. Toss in green onions, bell pepper and noodles.
  
  Cover bowl with plastic wrap, and chill 3 hours or over- night. Serve
  cold.
