Tips for Making Lemon Poppy Seed Noodles:
- Use fresh lemon juice for the best flavor. Bottled lemon juice can be used in a pinch, but it won't have the same bright flavor.
- If you don't have poppy seeds, you can substitute chia seeds or sesame seeds.
- To make the noodles more flavorful, toast them in a pan with a little bit of oil before adding them to the salad.
- If you're using a store-bought dressing, be sure to taste it before adding it to the salad. You may want to adjust the amount of dressing or add additional seasonings.
- Serve the salad immediately after making it, or the noodles will start to absorb the dressing and become soggy.
