This Thai Glass Noodle Salad might not look very flamboyant, but believe me, there’s a lot of flavor going on! Not in the same way as in many other incredibly spicy Thai dishes!<\/p>\n

No, it is definitely more subtle, with that perfect balance of spicy, tangy and sweet!  That’s what I love so much about Yum Woon Sen. It is simple but oh so perfect!<\/p>\n

How to make Thai Glass Noodle Salad (Yum Woon Sen) :<\/h2>\n

Yum Woon Sen is basically a cold or lukewarm-served salad made with naturally gluten-free glass noodles.<\/p>\n

But that is just the base! We now go ahead and pack our Thai glass noodle salad with fresh vegetables, crispy fried pork, chicken or beef, and crushed peanuts.<\/p>\n

The whole affair is tossed with a zingy ginger and lime dressing to achieve Thai Food perfection.<\/p>\n

I gotta admit that we have become rather obsessed with this quick and healthy Thai glass noodle dish this summer. There’s so much goodness going on in this salad and it is so fun to eat ! A real wake-up call for your taste buds!<\/p>\n

From the tart lime juice and aromatic cilantro to the crunchy peanuts and chewy noodles. Then the saltiness of the soy – and fish sauce, and the savory notes of the crisp, almost caramelized pork or beef, contrasted by the sweetness of the carrots freshly harvested from our garden. Perfection!<\/p>\n

I love cooking with glass noodles as they take no time at all to prepare!<\/p>\n

You’ll find them in Asian supermarkets but there’s a pretty good chance, that your local grocery store carries them as well, They are sometimes labeled differently, so you might want to check for mung bean noodles, or bean threads, as well.<\/p>\n

Yum Sen noodles are made from mung bean starch and are naturally gluten-free! They turn almost transparent when cooked and are surprisingly stretchy coming out of the hot water. I recommend you cut them up into a more manageable length using kitchen scissors!<\/p>\n

\"authentic<\/p>\n

I know you will love this Thai Glass Noodle Salad just as much as we do. It does not require a lot of cooking experience and only takes 30 minutes to put together.<\/p>\n
