Glass Noodles With Shrimp And Spicy Mustard Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a large pot of boiling water, cook noodles according to package directions until tender, about 8 to 10 minutes. Using tongs, transfer noodles to a colander and rinse under cold water until cool; drain well.
• In the same pot of boiling water, add shrimp. Poach over high until pink and just opaque throughout, 2 minutes. Drain shrimp and rinse under cold water.
• While the noodles cook, in a large bowl, combine mustard powder and 2 tablespoons very hot water; mix well. Let stand for 5 minutes to bloom. Add vinegar, ginger and sugar. Whisking constantly, drizzle in oil until well combined; season with salt and pepper. Reserve 1/3 cup of this dressing in a small bowl.
• Add cooled noodles to the large bowl of mustard sauce, season with salt and pepper, and toss until noodles are evenly coated. (Using clean hands works best, but otherwise use tongs.) Add shrimp, cucumbers, bell pepper and the reserved 1/3 cup dressing; season with salt and pepper, and toss until well combined. Season to taste.
• Divide noodle mixture among shallow bowls. Garnish with scallions and eggs, if using.

Steps:

• Stir lime juice and honey in a small bowl until honey dissolves. Mix in chile, ginger, garlic, fish sauce, and 3 Tbsp. oil; season dressing with salt.
• Toss shrimp and 2 Tbsp. dressing in a medium bowl to coat; let sit 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook noodles according to package directions. Drain and add to bowl with remaining dressing along with cucumber and ¼ cup peanuts; toss well.
• Heat remaining 1 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high. Pour off any liquid from shrimp and pat dry; season all over with salt. Cook shrimp, tossing occasionally, until browned and bright pink, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl with noodles, add basil, and toss well to combine.
• Divide noodle salad among bowls and top with remaining peanuts.

Steps:

• Place noodles in a baking dish; cover with boiling water. Let stand until tender and translucent, about 10 minutes; drain. In a bowl, combine soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, and 1/4 cup water.
• Heat a wok or large skillet (preferably cast iron) over high. When it begins to smoke, swirl in 1 tablespoon oil. Add shallots, lemongrass, ginger, and chile. Cook until sizzling and aromatic, about 1 minute. Transfer to a large plate.
• Return wok to high heat. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil. Add mushrooms, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender and browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer to plate.
• Return wok to high heat. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil. Add shrimp and snap peas, season with salt, and cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp are opaque and just cooked through and peas are charred in places, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to plate.
• Return wok to high heat. Swirl in remaining 1 tablespoon oil. Add eggs and scramble with a fork, cooking until they are beginning to set but still very wet, about 15 seconds. Quickly return shallot mixture, mushrooms, shrimp, and snap peas to skillet. Add noodles and soy-sauce mixture; season with pepper. Cook, tossing, until combined and heated through, about 1 minute. Remove from heat, stir in basil, and serve.
