How to Make Thai Noodle Salad

  1. Cook rice noodles according to package directions until al dente. Drain and rinse with cold water to stop the cooking process. Set aside to cool.
  2. While noodles cook, prepare the sauce. In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, peanut butter, soy sauce, rice vinegar, and chili-garlic sauce until smooth. Set aside.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger; sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the sliced green onions and sauté for another minute until softened.
  5. Pour the prepared sauce into the skillet and bring to a simmer for 1 minute, stirring constantly.
  6. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the sauce cool completely to room temperature.
  7. In a large bowl, toss the cooled noodles with the remaining 3 tablespoons of sesame oil.
  8. Pour the cooled sauce over the noodles and toss gently to combine.
  9. Add bean sprouts and shredded carrots; gently toss to incorporate.
  10. Transfer the salad to a serving platter or individual bowls.
  11. Garnish with the reserved sliced green onions and serve immediately or chill for later.
