With this dish, we’re paying homage to the warm-weather Japanese style of serving nutty buckwheat-based soba noodles at room temperature. Ours are simply dressed with a tangy, savory sauce of tahini, honey, soy sauce, and juice from the yuzu—a unique East Asian citrus.

Remove the honey from the refrigerator to bring to room temperature. Fill a medium saucepan with water; add a big pinch of salt. Heat to boiling on high. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Cut off and discard the stems of the peppers; remove and discard the cores. Thinly slice lengthwise. Peel and finely chop the ginger. Halve the peas crosswise. Halve the tomatoes; place in a bowl and season with salt and pepper. Cut off and discard the root ends of the scallions; thinly slice, separating the white bottoms and green tops. Cut off and discard the root end of the mushrooms; gently separate and place in a medium bowl. Add the sliced white bottoms of the scallions, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of olive oil; stir to combine. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally, at least 10 minutes; season with salt and pepper to taste.
While the mushrooms marinate, in a large bowl, whisk together the honey (kneading the packet before opening), yuzu juice, tahini, soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of olive oil, and 3 tablespoons of water until smooth.
While the mushrooms continue to marinate, in a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced peppers; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the halved peas and chopped ginger; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until lightly browned. Turn off the heat. Transfer to the bowl of sauce. Stir to combine.
While the vegetables cook, add the noodles to the saucepan of boiling water, gently stirring to separate. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until tender. Drain thoroughly. Rinse under cold water 30 seconds to 1 minute to stop the cooking process.
To the bowl of cooked vegetables and sauce, add the cooked noodles and seasoned tomatoes. Stir vigorously to coat; season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve the finished noodles topped with the marinated mushrooms (including any liquid) and the sliced green tops of the scallions. Enjoy!
