Instructions
- Bring soy sauce to a boil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat; reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until reduced by half, 10 to 15 minutes. Off heat, stir in molasses.
- Whisk sesame oil, tahini, balsamic vinegar, and chili oil together in a bowl; slowly whisk in soy sauce mixture. Stir in 1/4 cup scallions.
- Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook soba in boiling water, stirring occasionally, until noodles are tender yet firm to the bite, about 3 minutes. Immediately drain; rinse thoroughly in cold water.
- Toss noodles and sauce together; sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup scallions and sesame seeds on top. Refrigerate until cold, at least 30 minutes.
