Steps:

For the salad: Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add in the pasta and cook according to package directions until al dente. Add in the broccoli and cook for 1 minute more. Drain and set aside.
Meanwhile, make the dressing. Add the miso paste, ginger, lime juice, soy sauce, canola oil, vinegar, sesame oil, and sesame seeds to a mason jar, cover and shake to emulsify. Set aside.
Add the cucumbers, bell peppers, edamame, and carrots to a large bowl. Add in the warm pasta and broccoli. Pour the dressing onto the salad and toss to combine. Garnish with chopped chives and sesame seeds.

MISO-GINGER DRESSING

This classic Japanese dressing elevates a simple green salad into something restaurant-worthy. We also like it spooned on top of a pile of sautéed spinach or drizzled over a piece of grilled fish.

GREEN SAUCE NO. 4

Mixing lemon and lime juice, as well as a shot of apple cider vinegar, makes for a much more dynamic dressing than just one type of acid could ever achieve.
