About

This refreshing Thai salad can be prepared with a variety of ingredients, from prawns and crabs, to pork or chicken. The key to a good yum woon sen is to keep the glass noodles al dente, being careful not to overcook it or it might become soggy. The dressing can be adjusted according to taste, but the salad should be sweet, spicy and tangy.
