Expert Tips

Sesame oil adds a wonderful, nutty flavor to this Asian-inspired salad. If you don't have any on hand, you can use vegetable oil instead.

To toast sesame seed, cook in ungreased heavy skillet over medium heat about 2 minutes, stirring frequently until browning begins, then stirring constantly until golden brown.

I've made this recipe twice now. The first time I thought it was good and would try it again. The second time we decided the dressing was too tart from the vinegar. We used additional soysauce at the table, which helped mask the tartness. The second time I made it I cut the pork slices in half. The flavors of the noodles, vegetables and pork are good. I don't know what can be done with the tartness of the dressing so will not make this recipe again.

This salad is amazing! The dressing is VERY good. I didn''t shred the carrots and instead "julienned" them. I shredded them once before but I find when you julienne them, it almost has more of an "Asian" look. Putting half of the dressing on ahead of time really enhances the flavor. I don''t know why you couldn''t put it all on at once but I put the rest on right before I serve it and it''s quite good. Why change a good thing? This salad gets rave reviews! Try it!
