It was unexpectedly bloody hot and humid today - a day filled with numerous technical snafus and stress. But I was hungry anyhow and this is what I threw together. All I can say is that it was tasty enough to inspire this blog.
Cold Spicy Somen Noodle Salad
here’s what’s in it:
1 packet somen noodles (1 serving)
8 mint leaves finely sliced
hot and sweet asian chile sauce
soy sauce
rice wine vinegar
I added what i had left of pickled herring and onions in wine sauce - about 1/2 cup rinsed thoroughly and drained
Toss the seasonings and herring/onions in a bowl while the noodles are cooking. Rinse the noodles under really cold water and stir in.
total time - about 10 min.
I’m thinking I could do this with canned tuna or a nicer protein if I wanted to serve it to others…
