Got this salad recipe from my friend's wife a couple years ago. She's a very amazing Japanese cook. She taught me a lot how to cook Japanese food ππ»π IG @jenscookingdiary @jenscookdineandravel SueAnn. It's a chilled noodle dish with toppings (like fish cake, cucumbers, carrots, egg), and a flavorful sauce poured all over the noodles. Great to make ahead and serve chilled.
