    List of Ingredients


    • 6 garlic cloves, chopped
    • 1/4 cup fresh ginger, peeled and chopped
    • 1/2 cup vegetable oil
    • 1/2 cup tahini (sesame paste)
    • 1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
    • 1/2 cup good soy sauce
    • 1/4 cup dry sherry
    • 1/4 cup sherry vinegar
    • 1/4 cup honey
    • 1/2 teaspoon hot chili oil
    • 2 tablespoons dark sesame oil
    • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
    • 1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
    • 1 pound spaghetti
    • 1 red bell pepper, julienned
    • 1 yellow bell pepper, julienned
    • 4 scallions, sliced diagonally (white and green parts)


    Instructions


    1. Place the garlic and ginger in a food processor fitted with a steel blade. Add the vegetable oil, tahini, peanut butter, soy sauce, sherry, sherry vinegar, honey, chili oil, sesame oil, and ground peppers. Puree the sauce.
    2. Add a splash of oil to a large pot of boiling salted water and cook the spaghetti al dente. Drain the pasta in a colander, place it in a large bowl, and while still warm, toss with 3/4 of the sauce. Add the red and yellow bell peppers and scallions; toss well. Serve warm or at room temperature. The remaining sauce may be added, as needed, to moisten the pasta.
