  • 我终于make-som这之后eday list for ages… It was delicious (4/5, but only 3/4). Maybe even better cold today. Made a few changes, but hopefully nothing that makes a review unreasonable. Most major was subbing asparagus & carrots for the snow peas, which my DH dislikes. I had the carrots and wanted to bump up the veggies. Also used a mini-prep to make the sauce. Linguine instead of udon. Odd that there are so few reviews after 2-1/2 years; maybe it has something to do with the fact that the first time I tried to post I got an error…

  • I've had this on my make-sometime list for ages, and it finally fit the bill. Though of course I made a bunch of changes, but I think none so significant that they make it unreasonable to review: 12 oz of linguine instead of udon Asparagus & carrots instead of snow peas, which my DH dislikes, and I wanted to up the veggies a little and use up what we had! Used a mini-prep to make the sauce. Used some of the pasta sauce to thin it a little. It was delicious, and I think maybe even better cold today! Excellent base recipe that you could use with chicken, tofu, any kind of veggie. Bean sprouts would be delicious, but then, I love bean sprouts... A little surprising that it has so few reviews after 3-1/2 years!

  • Everyone really enjoyed this. Had to use a jalapeño, instead of a Fresno Chile, wasn't available. Threw the deseeded jalapeño and all dressing ingredients in a Ninja blender, used 1/2" bias cut asparagus, didn't have snow peas, and put them in the boiling water with shrimp. Super easy! Next time I might add a little lime juice.

  • This is one of the easiest and most delicious recipes I've ever made! We only had 8 oz of noodles, instead of 16 oz, but that actually worked perfectly for us. I like the extra sauciness. We'll probably me making this weekly, it was so good!

  • This is a fabulous recipe! I would make it frequently, but the only problem is that I cannot stop eating this after one portion. Soooooo delicious! This would be great for company, too!

  • Good and easy weeknight dinner. While it is OK as is I will add a bit more spices to it the next time. I suggest adding another tablespoon of peanut butter, 2-3 teaspoons of chili-garlic sauce (or more if more heat is desired) and at least 3 red chilies. Add sliced green onions with the cilantro to top it off.

  • Good, easy dish. I intended to servie it hot, more like a stir fry, so found there was much too much vinegar for my taste. I had to triple the peanut butter to cut it. Next time, I'd reduce the vinegar by half. I also recommend including the epper. The dish needs some heat to round it out.
