Cook 16 ounces linguine noodles al dente according to the package instructions. Drain the noodles and set aside.
To a small bowl, add the ½ cup soy sauce,1 tablespoon rice vinegar, ¼ cup brown sugar,2 teaspoons fresh ginger, and 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Whisk to combine, then set aside.
Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add 2 teaspoons sesame oil to the pan, and once the oil is hot, add the minced 3 cloves garlic, and saute for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour the sauce into the pan and whisk continuously. Simmer and whisk the sauce for 1-2 minutes until the sauce has thickened. It happens quickly! If the sauce seems too thick, add a splash of water, to help thin it.
Add the cooked noodles to the pan with the sauce. Toss the noodles in the sauce until they are fully coated.
Garnish with diced ¼ cup green onion,, red pepper flakes, and sesame seeds.
