Honey Sesame-Ginger Pasta With Shrimp and Scallops

Kitchen Notes

One of our taste testers said it best when describing this meal: if he were at a buffet he would have sampled the dish, but wouldn't go back for seconds.  Yes, you read that correctly.  It's not that the meal was bad, in fact, there were many things we liked about it: the texture and flavor of the udon (a little salty and creamy - yum!); the freshness of the shrimp; and the savoriness of the scallops.

And then we come to the sauce.  The sauce is, well, uhmm...interesting?  Missing something? Contains something it shouldn't? We weren't quite sure what the problem was, and that's where all you Honey Pacifica fans come in.  We are issuing our first-ever "Re-do This Recipe" challenge!  Test it out and let us know if you liked it as is, or changed it up and made it better.  To the kitchen!
