Tips for the noodle salad recipe

You can add sliced Jalapeño to bring a spicy flavor.
A teaspoon of mayonnaise in the dressing will make it creamier if you like.

What is the best type of noodles for the noodle salad?

While we like the idea of using rice noodles for making this salad gluten-free, this noodle salad recipe will work great with glass noodles (a type of noodles made with sweet potato starch, originally from Korea). If gluten is not a concern, then you can use range hair pasta or thin spaghetti.
