Asian Carrot Noodle Salad image

I wanted to make something that my picky DD would eat on a night when I was trying to make Japanese food. So I paired two of her favorite foods! I used green vegetable flavored noodles I got from my local Asian market, but you can use linguini or even spaghetti.

Categories     Vegetable

Time 1h25m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 ounces long thin noodles (about 1 c. cooked)
1 lb carrot
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon rice wine vinegar
1 tablespoon hot water
1 tablespoon sugar

Steps:

  • Depending on your noodles, you may need to start cooking them before or after you slice the carrots. Mine only take 5 minutes so I did them afterwards.Regardless start boiling your water for them now.
  • Wash and peel your carrots. With your vegetable peeler make long carrot "noodles". This is the bulk of the prep time. If I find an easier way to do this, I will amend this recipe.
  • Sprinkle the carrot peels with salt to draw out moisture. In a few minutes they will be quite limp (like cooked noodles). If you are using fast cooking noodles, now would be the time to cook them.
  • Mix the last three ingredients.
  • Mix the limp carrot strips, the cooked and drained noodles, and the sauce mixture.
  • Refrigerate at least one hour before serving(the cook time listed), but can be made as much as 24 hours ahead of time.

This salad is a great way to use up leftover chicken or shrimp. I like to add some shredded chicken or shrimp to the salad for a little extra protein.

I love that this salad is so versatile. You can add or remove ingredients to suit your own taste. I like to add some chopped peanuts or cashews for a little crunch.

This salad is a great make-ahead dish. I made it the night before a party and it was even better the next day. The flavors had really had a chance to meld together.
