["Bring a kettle of water to a boil and pour over rice noodles. Let t them stand and test for doneness - they should be ever so slightly underdone so when the sauce is added they will soak it up. Drain, rinse with cold water and set aside. Make sure they are thoroughly drained before adding to salad.
