A fast, fresh and flavourful dish for summer - Soba Noodle Salad recipe by Nurture the Seed.

Method

1. Cook soba noodles in boiling water for 4 minutes (or as per packet instructions), adding the edamame for the last 2 minutes. Drain in a colander, rinse with cold water and then drain again. Place the noodles and edamame in a salad bowl and drizzle with some sesame oil to prevent the noodles from sticking.

2. Meanwhile, toast the sesame and pumpkin/sunflower seeds in a dry pan over medium heat for 5 minutes or until golden. Combine all dressing ingredients in a jar and shake to combine.

3. Add the vegetables and herbs to the noodles. Pour over the dressing and mix to combine. Sprinkle the seeds on top and serve.

This recipe is taken from Nurture the Seed – an ultimate nutrition guide for expecting mums. Nurture the Seed is filled with 35 nutrient-dense recipes that are fuss-free, delicious and suitable for the whole family.

connecting during the chaos

How do you find time as a couple when you have young children? We asked two families how they stay connected – with both little and bigger kids.

love at first (and second) bite

The staccato sounds of “ciao” and “prego” break through the background noise at Millers’ Local Bakehouse. Italian isn’t a language you often hear around here, but given the recent addition to the menu, it’s not entirely surprising. Back in September, Bulli’s much-loved pastry paradise launched a gelato pop-up – and rumour has it, its creamy creations rival some of Sydney’s best.

how we met

For Amy Cuneo and Bronwyn Pessey, meeting over coffee at Amy’s Woonona cafe All & Sundry was fortuitous for the mums to be. Over ten years later, with kids in tow, they still catch up for Monday night dinners.

teaching mindfulness to our kids

In a busy world, we all need ways to stop and reset our bodies. So how can we practice mindfulness with our kids?

finding hygge

Step into a local slice of Scandinavia via Dansk in Helensburgh. A bar where the flavours are just like the owners, a blend of Danish and Australian, the mood is “hygee” and the warmth of giving back to a community they love.

connecting culture and cuisine

As a renowned chef, TV host, author and Indigenous food ambassador, Mark Olive, aka “The Black Olive” has achieved international acclaim, including his restaurant at the iconic Sydney Opera House. And at home on Dharawal Country, Mark is giving native ingredient bush tucker the world-class treatment at Killalea.
