Notes
- If you prefer the original recipe from 2014, scroll down a bit and I've included it below for your convenience.
- These noodles aren't particularly saucy, but if you'd prefer them to be, just double all the sauce ingredients.
- If you'd prefer to use fresh garlic and ginger, use about 1 1/2 - 2 tsp of minced fresh ginger, and 2-3 cloves of finely minced garlic.
