Your descriptive post makes me crave this cold noodle salad! Thanks for sharing your summer memories & your recipe. Is your mom the person that inspired you to be a chef? She must be very proud of you.

I meant refreshing when I said fresh. These are fresh ramen noodles I picked up from the Asian store
