Ingredients

How to make it

  • Soak the rice sticks in very warm water for at least twenty minutes.
  • While the sticks are soaking, prep the veggies.
  • Drain the noodles very well. Put in a large bowl.
  • Pour the boiling water over the slivered cabbage, pea pods and carrot slivers in the colander. Shake vigorously. You just want to blanch the veggies and barely soften them.
  • Toss the noodles, all the veggies, the Thai peppers and the shrimp if you desire.
  • Whisk the vinegar, soy, garlic, ginger, sugar, oils and pour over the veggies, Toss and serve room temperature, or chill and serve cold as a salad.

    This sounds really nice Tina. Are rice sticks just rice noodles?

    The variety of noodles can vary, Livia said she would make this if I kept the dressing in the frig, and prepped the veggies with a bag of ramen (leaving out the seasoning pack) as after school snack. So I better get out the shaker bottle and make more dressing!!! I love cellophane noodles personally. I'd even use angel hair if I didn't have the others.

    Lots of good flavors in that - you are so creative, girl! And the extra shot of veggies never hurts - especially with this yummy sounding dressing. I'm not sure I know what rice sticks are, though - not the rice noodles, I take it? Is it something usually only available at Asian markets? I will have to google it!
    PS - found it - they are like the rice noodles or bean thread...that I KNOW I can buy in our local grocer!
