Inspired by my favorite Vietnamese salad<\/h2>\n

This salad gets its inspiration from one of my favorite lunch time dishes: B\u00fan Chay — a light and refreshing Vietnamese salad made with glass noodles, fresh vegetables and herbs in a tangy rice vinegar dressing. The perfect lunch bowl! And with strawberries in season now, this was the perfect time to create a light and refreshing salad, \u00e0 la Elle Republic.<\/p>\n

The dressings is key to this glass noodle salad<\/h2>\n

To make this crave-worthy salad, not only do you need the best quality fresh ingredients, but you also need a killer vinaigrette. And this one is made with a combination of Japanese rice vinegar, a little unrefined sugar, sea salt, umami-rich miso paste, fresh chili, toasted sesame oil and a little of my go-to olive oil. Add all the ingredients to a bowl, whisk until combined, and there you have a dressing that takes this glass noodle salad to a whole new tasty level. Next comes the noodles.<\/p>\n

\nWhat are glass noodles?<\/h2>\n

Also known as vermicelli, cellophane or bean thread noodles, glass noodles are transparent noodles that, when cooked, are transparent like glass. They are made from starch (such as a combination of pea starch with mung bean or green bean starch, there are even ones made from sweet potato starch). They are easy to prepare, you just soak them in boiling water for a few minutes. I use my kettle<\/a> to prepare the boiling water and simply pour it over a bowl with the noodles and they are ready in minutes. Drain and away we go! Rice noodles can also be used \u2014 they taste great \u2014 but they tend to be stickier than the slippery glass noodles.<\/p>\n
