Korean-style Spicy Cucumber and Cellophane Noodle Salad
"Muru" (물) means water. "Nen-myon" (냉면) means cold noodles. "Bibimu" (비빔밥) means mixing.
"Muru-nen-myon" (물냉면) means cold noodles with soup.
"Bibi-mu-nen-myon" (비빔 냉면)) means cold noodles dressed with paste such as gochujang without soup.
This is "bibi-nu" (비빔밥) of cellophane noodles, cucumber and chicken breast.
If you can't find thick cellophane noodles, it's fine to use the thin variety.
It looks red, but it is not as spicy red as you think. Gochujang is very spicy, though.
Check the spiciness of your Korean chili at first before use. Recipe by pegupepepe

Cooking Instructions
- 1
I like to use thick cellophane noodles for this recipe. They keep their shape.
- 2
Slice the cucumbers slightly thickly and diagonally. Soak in salted water for about 2 minutes. Rinse and drain well or pat dry.
- 3
If your cucumbers have a lot of seeds or are too ripe, scrape the seeds with a spoon. Then soak in the salted water.
- 4
Add salt, pepper and sake to the water for poaching the chicken breast. Add the leftover Japanese leek too. Put in the chicken breast and bring to the boil over a high heat. After bringing to the boil, turn the heat down to low and cook for about 1minute.
- 5
Remove the pan from the heat and leave to cool. After cooling take the chicken out of the poaching liquid and shred the meat.
- 6
Cook the noodles following the instructions and rinse. Drain well (or squeeze) and mix with a little sesame oil to prevent from sticking to each other.
- 7
These are the prepared ingredients.
- 8
These are the vegetables for the dressing -Ginger, garlic and the core of the leftover Japanese leek. Except from the Japanese leek, chop the vegetables finely.
- 9
Mix the vegetables with the other seasonings to make the dressing.
- 10
Mix well and add a tiny amount of grated garlic. Do not forget this.
- 11
When you finish the preparation chill everything in the fridge. Lukewarm ingredients won't make a tasty salad.
- 12
Just before serving. Take 3 tablespoons of the dressing and mix the noodles with it. Mix roughly with your hand and transfer to a serving plate.
- 13
Put the cucumber and chicken breast into the dressing bowl and mix well with your hands.
- 14
Add the Japanese leek at the end. Mix with your hands. Transfer to the serving plate.
- 15
Place the thinly julienned white part of the Japanese leek and Korean chili powder on top. Done.
- 16
It looks very red, but it's actually not as spicy hot as it looks. Gochijang may be the hottest thing in the whole dish?
- 17
According to the kids there are different spiciness in the chili. Check the taste first and adjust.

Chinese-style Cellophane Noodle Salad Chinese-style Cellophane Noodle Salad
I loved the "bansansuu" they used to serve for school lunch, so I re-created the dish from memory.The noodles are too long to eat as-is, so cut them up into easy to eat lengths after cooking them.If you mix the seasoning ingredients in a large bowl, add the noodles to the bowl later, you only have the one bowl to wash up.Rub the cucumber with salt and squeeze it out beforehand. If you skip that, the dish will become watery. For 6 servings. Recipe by Hamumaki -

Thai-style Cellophane Noodle Salad Thai-style Cellophane Noodle Salad
The cellophane noodle salad I once had at a Thai restaurant was so delicious that I couldn't forget it. So I tried re-creating it at home. I left out the fresh coriander (cilantro) leaves, which I don't like, and I think it came out pretty well. Sooo delicious!You don't have to have all the ingredients listed here. To make the salad look colorful and appetizing, it's a good idea to include both green and red ingredients. I recommend adding red and yellow bell peppers too.If you add in raw sweet onions instead of the regular onions here, you'll be able to enjoy their crispy texture. For an easy to make amount (3 to 4 servings). Recipe by yaburie. -
Sweet and Tart Chinese Cellophane Noodle Salad Sweet and Tart Chinese Cellophane Noodle Salad
When I used to make this salad and store in the fridge, I didn't like the salad becoming too dry since the cellophane noodles absorbed too much sauce.I added more soy sauce or vinegar to make it better, but I finally solved this problem by coating the noodles with oil!As a result, I could reduce the amount of flavoring ingredients as well.I recommend making this salad a little spicy by adding drops of ra-yu.If you serve this straight away, rinse the cellophane noodles in cold water. If you plan to eat it later, it's better to mix in the sauce right before you serve as much as possible!Add the sesame oil in the hot water, and drain. Don't add it over the drained noodles directly. This is key. Recipe by Shijimi24 -

Super Quick & Easy Asian Inspired Cold Noodle Salad Super Quick & Easy Asian Inspired Cold Noodle Salad
Cold noodle salads are some of my favorite quick and easy meals because they take very little time, are tasty and refreshing, and they're a complete balanced meal in a bowl!I used soba noodles today, but I also use rice vermicelli and angel hair pasta.The vegetables below are just the ones I had on hand today, but you can use all kinds of crisp/crunchy veg like red or green cabbage, mung bean sprouts, yellow squash, sugar snap peas, jicama, bell pepper... endless possibilities!And for the protein, I had a package of surimi (krab) on hand, but you could also use deli ham or turkey, precooked shrimp, or the breast from one of those storebought rotisserie chickens.For the dressing, you'll want to start on the low end of the measurements and adjust up if needed.For efficiency, start knife work after you start boiling the water for the noodles, and continue while noodles are boiling, and everything should pretty much be ready to mix by the time the noodles are ready! :)#eatmoreveg
